ProgramsAbstractThe importance of collaborative learning is well recognized. But achieving collaborative learning,especially in engineering (or, in general, in science, technology, engineering, and math (STEM))courses, is challenging. Over the last several years, a number of online technologies that can beused to effect collaborative learning have been introduced. Especially promising are wikis and pro-grams in various disciplines have introduced wiki-based collaborative activities. But researchershave reported that, contrary to expectations, wiki-based activities have not resulted in promotingcollaborative learning. The results have been especially poor in STEM courses.Peer-instruction (PI) is a classroom technique that helps students help each other

As a result, students’conceptual understanding was enhanced, and their exam grades were improved accordingly.Using smart devices in the class could be distracting, but can be alleviated by asking students touse the smart devices only during the poll question time, and put the smart devices away afterfinishing the poll responses. Overall it is beneficial to integrate the system into engineering classes to enhance classinteraction and participation. However, good implementation can be time consuming, as studentsand instructors need time to adjust to the new technology, there are the technological glitcheswith the system and network access, the login system may be inconvenient, and questions needto be designed cautiously to prevent
