How to Use Peer Instruction for Student Teachers: A Case Study of Physics for Teacher I

Abstract

This study was to study students' physics learning performance on physics for teachers I and to explore what students' opinions were toward physics class after using Peer Instruction (PI) as an undergraduate compulsory course. This case study was classroom research and quasi- experimental research design. The qualitative and quantitative research approach was used to collect the data in the first semester of 2025 at faculty of education, Suan Sunandha Rajabhat University, Bangkok, Thailand. The inferential statistics was used to analyze the quantitative data. Meanwhile, qualitative data were collected by conducting focus group interview and analyzed by using content analysis. The results showed that students' physics learning outcome scores were significant higher after learning through PI class. Their opinions toward PI class were mostly positive while comparing to tradition class.
