Characterizing the mathematical problem-solving strategies of transitioning novice physics students

Much work has been done to characterize the reasoning of students as they solve mathematics-intensive problems and characterizing differences in expert and novice problem solving. In this work, we characterize the problem-solving strategies in a classroom setting of “transitioning novices,” students...
