A session of the APS Eastern Great Lakes Section (EGLS) Fall 2024 Meeting
Presented by Gay Stewart
Abstract: The Effective Practices for Physics Programs (EP3) initiative (EP3guide.org) is a collaborative effort between APS and AAPT designed to assist departments improve through continued self-reflection while drawing on practices deemed effective, as demonstrated either through research or by community practice. This presentation will start with a brief overview of the EP3 guide. Following this overview, we will discuss how it is meant to be used and provide some examples of institutions that were very successful at improving their undergraduate programs, and show how what they did to accomplish this improvement is supported by the guide. We will conclude with tips and strategies for using the guide, based on audience interests.
