An excellent example of how Peer learning communities can work effectively with minimal educator input.

This clip shows a real lecture where Personal Response System and interactive teaching with peer instruction are used effectively in Physics teaching. For those teaching large classes and/or Science and Engineering this is a great demonstration of the technique.

How can we make students take ownership of their learning process? This video explores some examples from Alan November. He tells anecdotes of when student feel they have a purpose to their work/learning and a legacy to leave: how positively this impacts the learning process.

Great video giving advice to students on how to approach peer assessment.

This blog post discusses the required learning conditions for effective online discussions, and include excerpts from peer-reviewed papers that describe how asynchronous online discussions can promote deep, rich learning.

A technique to help active learning in Physics. A great resource for people engaged in teaching in STEM. This was pioneered by Prof. Eric Mazur from Harvard University and a very well respected educator in Physics

Salman Khan talks about how and why he created a carefully structured series of educational videos offering complete curricula in math. He shows how using the videos students can watch lectures "at home", and do the interactive exercises "in the classroom" with the teacher or peers.

Eric in action at ALT C 2012 - he is very watchable, talking about how he makes large lectures very active and why its worth the effort.

Sandra, we need to learn from the best. Thank you for this.
