written by Ashley Carter

Overhauling a laboratory experiment, course, or curriculum is a daunting process. Here, I describe a fourstep process our department used to overhaul our laboratory curriculum and courses. This four-step process includes: 1) identifying learning goals, 2) describing current practices, 3) making changes, and 4) planning for assessment. In addition, I describe how we updated experiments in the courses to be "3D". These "3D" experiments are designed to meet three different types of goals: theoretical goals, experimental goals, and computational goals.
