Investigation the Current State of University Physics Teaching: A Case Study of Taishan University

University Physics is a foundational course offered to undergraduate students in science and engineering programs outside of physics majors and it represents a foundational discipline in science and engineering education. However, traditional University Physics instruction has many areas in need of improvement. A questionnaire for undergraduate students was prepared and implemented in order to grasp the current status of teaching and learning of University Physics at our institution. Based on the statistical analysis of the survey data, the learning and teaching status of University Physics courses were identified, and teaching suggestions to improve the quality of classroom instruction were proposed.

Abstract

University Physics is a foundational course offered to undergraduate students in science and engineering programs outside of physics majors and it represents a foundational discipline in science and engineering education. However, traditional University Physics instruction has many areas in need of improvement. A questionnaire for undergraduate students was prepared and implemented in order to grasp the current status of teaching and learning of University Physics at our institution. Based on the statistical analysis of the survey data, the learning and teaching status of University Physics courses were identified, and teaching suggestions to improve the quality of classroom instruction were proposed.
