The basic goals of Peer Instruction are to encourage and make use of student interaction during lectures, while focusing students' attention on underlying concepts and techniques. The method centers around asking interactive questions, called ConcepTests, that help students build understanding. In this workshop, participants will learn about Peer Instruction, serve as the "class" in which Peer Instruction is demonstrated, and learn how to design good ConcepTests.
