Duah, Francis; Croft, Tony; Inglis, Matthew – International Journal of Mathematical Education in Science and Technology, 2014
We report the implementation and evaluation of a "peer assisted learning" (PAL) scheme designed to reduce the so-called "cooling off" phenomenon in undergraduate mathematics. "Cooling off" occurs when mathematics undergraduates lose motivation and interest in their studies, despite having previously actively chosen to…

Peer-Led Team Learning in Mathematics Courses for Freshmen Engineering and Computer Science Students
Reisel, John R.; Jablonski, Marissa R.; Munson, Ethan; Hosseini, Hossein – Journal of STEM Education: Innovations and Research, 2014
Peer-led Team Learning (PLTL) is an instructional method reported to increase student learning in STEM courses. As mathematics is a significant hurdle for many freshmen engineering students, a PLTL program was implemented for students to attempt to improve their course performance. Here, an analysis of PLTL for freshmen engineering students in…

Grubbs, Natalie – Georgia School Counselors Association Journal, 2009
The results of a study that examined the peer tutoring program at a middle school are discussed in this article. In an effort to determine ways to improve the peer tutoring program an action research (AR) mixed design study was developed. AR is practitioner based research. Its purpose is to examine the work of practitioners for effectiveness and…

PDF pending restorationAtlanta Public Schools, GA. Div. of Research, Evaluation, and Data Processing. – 1990
The effectiveness of a peer leadership program connecting senior high school students with at-risk, new eighth-graders in seven Atlanta (Georgia) high schools is evaluated. The program trains the peer leaders in leadership and group dynamics and then places pairs of leaders with 10 or 12 advisees for weekly meetings. The study population includes…
