Peer instruction is an evidence-based teaching strategy that deepens learning by involving students in their own learning and focusing their attention on concepts they must explain and clarify to their colleagues. It is highly effective and relatively easy to implement.

This workshop on Peer Instruction is designed to equip you with an understanding of peer instruction, the research on its implementation, and how to infuse it into their classes this semester. The peer instruction strategy is a great example of how a small adjustment to instructional  practice can potentially have significant impact on student experience and success. Participants in this workshop are asked only to arrive motivated to improve practice, and they'll leave with a plan for effective, evidence-based change using peer instruction!
