Hey guys! I'm not sure if you are familiar with the Peer Instruction method (I wasn't), and after watching the following video it has blown my mind.



What do you guys think of it?

Cheers! (Clapping)

Seems interesting , I will try to watch it all . Thanks for sharing the video ,
 
It is quite long, so I understand if few people took the time to watch it all the way (I know I haven't done so with Randy Pausch's lectures posted by Ackbach!). I found it interesting because it highlights an effect I see frequently here: it is not uncommon for someone to come with a question and someone else answer it commenting about their own difficulties with the first time they encountered the subject, thus shedding light on issues about learning those concepts. :D
