Assessing mathematical sensemaking in physics through calculation-concept crossover
Professional problem-solving practice in physics and engineering relies on mathematical sense making—reasoning that leverages coherence between formal mathematics and conceptual understanding. A key question for physics education is how well current instructional approaches develop students’ mathema...
