©American Society for Engineering Education, 2024 The Implementation and Assessment of the Effectiveness of Peer Teaching Instructional Technique in Lecture and Laboratory CoursesIntroductionPeer teaching is based on Bandura’s social learning theory, Piaget’s cognitive development, andVygotsky’s social constructivist learning theory [1-2], in which knowledge is sociallyconstructed by consensus among peers. The basic principle of peer teaching is that teachingsomething to others is an effective way to learn it [2-3]. Peer teaching involves students acting asboth teachers and learners, assisting each other in gaining knowledge and understanding throughinterdependence [4]. By teaching others, students
