• Discipline-Based Education Research: Understanding and Improving Learning in Undergraduate Science and Engineering. (2012, background): “Some studies investigate the representations students construct during problem solving and how they use those representations (Heller and Reif, 1984; Larkin, 1983; Rosengrant, Etkina, and Van Heuvelen, 2005; Van Heuvelen and Zou, 2001), whereas other studies explore the facility with which students ”
• Synthesis of Discipline-Based Education Research in Physics. (2014, background): “Multiple studies have determined that some students give inconsistent answers to the same problem-solving question when it is presented in different representational formats [98,99].”
