Dear colleagues,
I am a PhD researcher in Physics Education Research and I am inviting physics academics to take part in a research study exploring how uncertainty is understood and approached in physics.
The study involves a one-to-one interview (approximately 60 minutes) in which participants will be asked to discuss their thoughts on uncertainty, their use of uncertainties in their research as well as teaching and to work through a short, simple physics scenario. No specialist preparation is required, and the focus is on reasoning and reflection rather than performance.
The information sheet attached here contains more information.
If you are interested in taking part, please follow the sign-up link below. You will then receive and email from me to discuss further details.
The Sign-Up Deadline is May 15th 2026.
If you would like more information or have any questions, please feel free to contact me by clicking on my name at the top of this page.
Thank you very much for considering taking part.
