Hi, Anthony.

Can you please share with me what you mean by "peer instruction"? I am
developing a platform for peer-to-peer teaching at the high school level,
and the majority of our content is for physics. We expanded in September
to include math, history, and other sciences too.

I can steer you toward a lot of peer resources, though naturally I want to
ask you for feedback on mine :) My goal is a peer-to-peer teaching
community powered by student-made video lessons. In addition to a
curriculum of student-content, I want to add chat, message boards, tools
for students to collaborate on projects, etc. You can see what I've done
so far at OpenSourceHigh.com.

As for some other peer-to-peer resources, here is what I've found:

SchoolTube.com has lots of student-made content mixed with teacher-made
content.

ProjectEd.com started off with student-made content and added some adult
stuff too.

OpenStudy.com has lots of peer-to-peer tutoring chat support for free.

Luvo Learn (formerly Flash Notes) has a lot of peer-made content for higher
ed, much of which can be used for high school too.

PeerAnswer.com - a new site I recently discovered which has chat rooms
similar to

OpenStudy.com with additional social features.


Hope this helps. And please let me know anything extra you think I should
be looking at as I progress forward with Open Source High.

I use peer instruction techniques in my physics classes. A few of my (non
physics) colleagues wanted to know of any online peer instruction
resources for biology and chemistry. Does anyone know of good online
sources for multiple-choice questions in these disciplines?
