Stony Brook University will receive $299,949 over three years from the National Science Foundation's STEM Education program (CFDA 47.076) to study online laboratory instruction in undergraduate physics courses. Specifically, the project aims to investigate how physics faculty and teaching assistants have adapted laboratory materials and pedagogy for remote learning during the COVID-19 pandemic. It will explore factors influencing online teaching approaches as well as student experiences and outcomes in online physics labs. The research seeks to identify ways to improve undergraduate science pedagogy, student performance and attitudes, particularly for underrepresented groups in STEM. Insights from this work could help enhance online lab instruction and equity in physics education nationally.
