物理课堂中的计算论文

Computational Essays in the Physics Classroom

Tor Ole B. Odden, John Burk

摘要:

写作和论证对专业物理和物理教育都至关重要。然而,在物理课堂上,除了实验室笔记本或数学证明等某些做法外,在写作中进行扩展论证的技巧往往被忽视。计算对专业物理学和越来越多的物理教育也至关重要。近年来,我们已经开始开发一类作业,称为计算论文,既利用计算的创造性启示,帮助学生建立他们的议论文写作技巧。计算论文是一种结合文本和代码来表达想法或进行论证的论文或报告,通常用笔记本软件编写。在这篇文章中,我们描述了计算论文背后的动机和哲学,以及在本科生电磁学入门课程中试点实施的初步结果。

英文摘要:

Writing and argumentation are critical to both professional physics and physics education. However, the skill of making an extended argument in writing is often overlooked in physics classrooms, apart from certain practices like lab notebooks or mathematical proofs. Computation is also critical to both professional physics and, increasingly, physics education. In recent years we have begun to develop a class of assignment, known as a computational essay, to both leverage the creative affordances of computation and help students build their argumentative writing skills. Computational essays are a type of essay or report that combine text and code to express an idea or make an argument, usually written in notebook software. In this article, we describe the motivation and philosophy behind computational essays, as well as initial results from a pilot implementation in an introductory undergraduate electricity and magnetism course.
