| Abstract | Peer-Led Team Learning (PLTL) is an innovative active-learning curriculum intervention for improving student success, retention, and leading to more timely graduation in the engineering and science disciplines. dasiaPlus Twopsila PLTL has been successfully integrated into six courses in three disciplines at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP). dasiaPlus Twopsila substitutes two hours of Workshop: small-group, active, collaborative learning guided by an undergraduate STEM student (Peer Leader) for one hour of large section lecture per week. Since fall 2000, the C-or-better passing rate in first semester general chemistry here has improved from the historic average near 53% to the current rate above 70%, translating into an additional 160 students successfully progressing each year into their engineering, science, and mathematics majors. Over the past six years the authors have trained many groups of students to become successful peer leaders at their respective institutions. The three-hour workshop proposed is designed for faculty members who want to learn how to train students to adopt the active learning strategies and pedagogical skills to be successful leaders in PLTL Workshops. Participants will become practitioners by dasialearning by doingpsila in this session. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
