Abstract: Students come to our courses with a personal theory of physics. Most students do not change their
personal theories during a traditionally taught physics course. In this paper I will give some reasons for
this and also highlight some successful active-engagement curricula who help students to modify their
personal theories of physics and thus help them acquiring a good functional understanding of physics.
