Teach back, initially used in health care, has recently been also applied in higher education, for selfassessment, and to enhance student engagement. These applications, however, have been limited to the field of humanities. In our work, we extend the concept of teach-back to one of our STEM courses,namely “Introduction to Artificial Intelligence”. Here, we couple teach-back with the use of study groups. Our goal with this exercise was many-fold. For one, we want to increase student engagementand student activation in the course. Moreover, we want to increase student understanding. Lastly, we want to attain the above with an efficient use of teacher hours. In this paper, we describe how we implemented the teach-back method. Our results show that after introducing teach-back, we have a slightly decreased rate of fails at the oral exam. We also found that students who engaged in the teach-back activity found it mostly beneficial and engaging. Unfortunately, however, it was only a small portion of students who participated in teach-back. Thus, beyond improving the implementation ofteach-back, our main target for future work will be to engage more students in it.
