DESCRIPTION:N. Sanjay Rebello\nDepartment of Physics\nKansas State Universi
 ty\nTransfer of learning is often described as the overarching goal\nof ed
 ucation.  The talk will begin with a brief review of how\nthe theoretical 
 perspectives on transfer of learning have evolved\nover time and present o
 ne perspective of transfer that has served\nas an overarching framework fo
 r some of the projects in our\nresearch group over the past few years\, in
  particular two projects\nthat are based on this perspective.  The first f
 ocuses on\nnon-science majors constructing their conceptual understanding 
 of\nfriction at the microscopic level.  The second focuses on\nfacilitatin
 g transfer of the concept of mathematical integration to\nproblem solving 
 in a calculus-based physics course for future\nengineers.  Finally\, I wil
 l discuss how our perspectives on\ntransfer of learning inform some of our
  ongoing work on the use of\nvisual cues to facilitate problem solving in 
 physics.\nProfessor Rebello is a candidate for the Tomlinson Chair in\nSci
 ence Education. His biography follows:\nN. Sanjay Rebello is Associate Pro
 fessor in the Physics\nDepartment at Kansas State University where he join
 ed the faculty\nin 2001.  His research has been in the area of transfer of
 \nlearning with applications to problem solving.  Most recently\nhis resea
 rch has focused on transfer of problem solving skills from\nmathematics to
  physics by future engineers as well as the use of\nvisual cueing to promo
 te problem solving in physics.\n
