Corinne Manogue
Corinne Manogue is Professor of Physics in the College of Science. She has been the Director of the Paradigms in Physics Project since 1996. Her curriculum development interests are in helping students make the difficult transition from lower-division to upper-division physics. Research questions that fascinate her are:
- How students learn to “think like physicists”?
- How do students develop professional, metacognitive habits of mind?
- How do students learn to use multiple representations, geometric and harmonic reasoning in their problem solving?
- How do students personal epistemologies change as they enter the upper division?
- How do faculty learn to teach in ways that foster the changes listed above?
