Affiliation

At present I am working with the Physics Education Research Groups at
• University of Maryland at College Park, MD and
• Kansas State University at Manhattan, KS.
  Otherwise, I am based at
• Department of Physics, University of Delhi, India.
  I get nostalgic about the years spent teaching-learning and trekking with students at
• Miranda House, University of Delhi, India.

Research Interests

My current research is in Physics Education.

What interests me is
Hands-on science and locally produced low cost equipment
Computers and computers in teaching-learning
Microcomputer based laboratories and computational tools
Diverse student populations and how students learn.

I have an ongoing project for integrating computers in physics teaching.
The development work is almost always with undergraduate students as collaborators.

My initial research was in theoretical atomic and molecular physics.
