Peer instruction

Proceedings of the seventh international workshop on Computing education research, 2011
Peer Instruction (PI) is an instructional approach that engages students in constructing their own understanding of concepts. Students individually respond to a question, discuss with peers, and respond to the same question again. In general, the peer discussion portion of PI leads to an increase in the number of students answering a question correctly.

Peer instruction in computing

Proceeding of the 44th ACM technical symposium on Computer science education, 2013
Peer Instruction has recently gained interest in computing as an effective active learning pedagogy. The general focus of PI research has been on the in-class portion of PI: multiple choice questions and group discussion. Here, our focus is the reading quizzes completed by students for purposes of class preparation.

Peer Instruction in Computing

Proceedings of the 47th ACM Technical Symposium on Computing Science Education, 2016
Recent work in computing has converged on a collection of complementary findings suggesting the value of the Peer Instruction (PI) pedagogy. Compared to lecture, PI has been shown to decrease fail rates, increase final exam grades, and increase engagement and enjoyment.

Peer instruction in CS

Proceeding of the 44th ACM technical symposium on Computer science education, 2013
We introduce participants to Peer Instruction (PI): an active learning technique shown to be effective across the CS curriculum. In PI, Students work together to exchange perspectives and answer challenging conceptual questions, and are supported by short teaching segments.

Peer Instruction of Home Glucose Monitoring

Diabetes Care, 1982
During a 2-wk summer camp for insulin-dependent children aged 9–15 yr, a voluntary program of home glucose monitoring using an Ames' Dextrometer was offered. The primary instructors were campers who had mastered the procedure and who, with limited staff assistance, tutored naive campers.

Peer‐to‐Peer Instruction in a Programming Course

Decision Sciences Journal of Innovative Education, 2006
The way programming is taught—individual students creating small, self-contained programs—and the way programming is normally accomplished—teams integrating code into complex applications, with emphasis on reuse—differ significantly (Prey, 1995). Compounding the problem, what employers want from management information systems (MIS) graduates appears to

Peer Tutoring to Individualize Instruction

The Elementary School Journal, 1976
Children have helped one another to learn since antiquity. In early America, older pupils in one-room schoolhouses frequently helped younger pupils with their lessons. In the 1960's, programs in which children helped other children were in effect on a large scale.
