Physics from novices' and experts' view: a simple test instrument — •Peter Wächter and Susanne Schneider — IV. Physikalisches Institut, Universität Göttingen, Germany

Considering the scientific results dominantly originating from english-speaking researchers, the assessment of students' views on physics and learning physics using simple instruments is a desirable objective. For this reason, we present in this work a new, very simple questionnaire, which using an empirically defined experts' view permits to compare the experts' and student's perspective. Besides the description of development an design of the instrument, we present first results from recent studies and give suggestions for future questions.
