Large test banks of multiple choice questions (MCQs) are popular resources for students wishing to quickly learn course material. However, they are time consuming to create and offer a somewhat limited learning experience. PeerWise offers an innovative approach that enhances standard teaching and learning practice by requiring students to participate in the construction and evaluation of MCQs. The system encourages the development of higher order cognitive skills and enhances student learning with virtually no additional cost to teaching staff. We have now used PeerWise in several large undergraduate programming courses, and report here on the design of the system and its user interface, identify several related systems, discuss our motivation and underlying teaching philosophy, and present some usage and performance results.
