Interactive Networks: Roles of Mathematics in Physics Education

This repository contains interactive network visualizations from the paper:

Palmgren, E., Kokkonen, T., & Bruun, J. (2025). Roles of Mathematics in Physics Education: A Systematic Review.
DOI: https://doi.org/10.1103/wwww-gwp8

We systematically reviewed 122 research articles to explore how mathematics is conceptualized in physics education research. Using network analysis, we visualized key patterns across article topics, theoretical frameworks, physics contexts, and roles of mathematics.

➡️ Open web-page with interactive networks

Below, you can access source code for the interactive networks. Interactive networks were made witht he Sigma.js plugin for Gephi.
