Personal profile
About
Mr. Obsniuk aims to incorporate computation at the introductory physics level so that students
can engage in authentic and modern scientific practices while learning.
Mr. Obsniuk believes that in order to gain additional understanding of introductory physical concepts,
students must be given the opportunity to develop and answer their own questions. He aims to provide this
opportunity by leveraging relevant research in both cognitive psychology and physics education research.
