In Peerwise, students actively engage with the material because they think up their own test questions about the material, have these questions answered by fellow students and share the questions with each other. 

For example, you can have your students think up test questions in preparation for a tutorial. Then, during the seminar, discuss some test questions in plenary and explain why you should or should not include these questions in an exam. 

Formulating the test questions stimulates students to think more deeply about the theory. You can also use Peerwise to create a database of all the questions students have developed, so that they can use them in preparation for an exam. In addition, students can also learn from giving feedback on each other’s questions and answer options.
