Impact on Science Disciplines: Physics Impact on students Physics students gain ◦ a healthy new perspective on the nature of and interplay between physics and (applied) mathematics by solving realistic problems computationally ti ◦ computational knowledge and skills that create new opportunities for learning and research in our department Challenges ◦ overcoming a resistance to computing evinced by some of our students so that more of them realize the gains 18
Impact on faculty and our science Physics faculty gain ◦ students with new resources for learning in the classroom and the lab ◦ students prepared for undergraduate research in the expanding field of computational physics p g p p y Challenges ◦ increasing faculty awareness of the resources above, especially as it relates to revising classroom and lab instruction to take advantage of them [NB. Phys 344]
