Description

We examine students' attitudes to group work in physics courses with the Investigative Science Learning Environment (ISLE) approach. ISLE highlights the importance of group work. Students collaborate in lectures, recitations, and laboratories. We aim to answer the following questions: How have students' attitudes towards group work changed during the course? How is this change influenced by their previous experiences? What role did ISLE play in the development of students' attitudes?
We examine students' attitudes using semi-structured interviews. For triangulation we use responses to CLASS and E-CLASS questionnaires, attendance records, their submission and resubmission of lab reports, and success on exams.
