Due to fear, many intellectually able students are unable to obtain satisfactory results in physics. With several decades of experience studying the correlation between science attitudes and anxieties in various student populations, the authors of this comprehensive text discuss how preconceptions and misconceptions about physics often produce anxiety, and they frame this within the wider field of science anxiety. Topics covered include student attitudes, science anxiety, gender, nationality, mathematics anxiety, classroom pedagogy, laboratory pedagogy, group project pedagogy, pedagogies for different student populations, constructivism, social engagement, information technology and issues relevant to distance learning. The book expertly brings together these topics and explains their connections with attitudes and anxiety.

Mallow is an Emeritus Professor of Physics at Loyola University Chicago. He received his PhD from Northwestern University in 1970 and joined Loyola University Chicago in 1976. He discovered and named the phenomenon of science anxiety and co-founded the first clinic to help students overcome it. He has published widely in this field, as well as in theoretical physics and science education. Helge Kastrup is an Emeritus Professor of Mathematics and Physics at Copenhagen University College and a lecturer in science and mathematics at the University of Copenhagen. He has taught physics, maths and science at levels from 10-year olds to Master's students at various Danish schools and universities. He has written several research articles and books on science and pedagogy and has contributed to several textbooks on the natural sciences.0 aTitle from PDF title page (viewed on June 10, 2023). 0aPhysicsxStudy and teaching. 0aAnxiety. 7aTeaching skills & techniques.2bicssc 7aEDUCATION / Teaching / Subjects / Science & Technology.2bisacsh1 aKastrup, Helge,eauthor.2 aInstitute of Physics (Great Britain),epublisher.08iPrint version:z9780750348645z9780750348676 0aIOP (Series).pRelease 23. 0aIOP series in physics education. 0aIOP ebooks.p2023 collection.40uhttps://iopscience.iop.org/book/mono/978-0-7503-4866-9
