Student Textbook Use in Introductory Physics
written by
Karen Cummings, Timothy A. French, and Patrick Cooney
This article reports on a two part study of extent to which students use a textbook in cal-culus-based introductory physics courses for scientists and engineers. The first aspect of the study is an investigation of how the placement of worked examples influences student use of the textbook. The second aspect studied is how course assignments can be used to encourage students to read the textbook.
