Example:Evaluating the Newtonian viewpoint
The previous examples have been at a small “grain size” — a single concept or the interaction of two concepts.
Hestenes et al.* attempted to develop a probe of students’ overall attainment of an overall Newtonian viewpoint — a much larger “grain size” containing many concepts and their interactions.
