Use of In-class Physics Demonstrations in Highly Interactive Format

written by Kandiah Manivannan and David E. Meltzer

This paper, presented at the 2001 Physics Education Research Conference, demonstrates how traditional classroom demonstrations may be converted into active-learning experiences through linked multiple-choice question-and-answer sequences. Sample question sequences and worksheet materials are presented, as well as preliminary assessment data.
