This research aims to examine the effect of peer teaching on the academic success of primary school fourth grade students. The biggest difference of this research from other researches is the application of a different method in peer teaching. This research is in the pretest-posttest experimental design with an unequal control group. The research…

Student success in anatomy courses is critical for entry-level occupational therapy doctorate (OTD) programs, yet many students struggle to master this foundational subject. Research on effective academic interventions to support anatomy learning in OTD programs is limited, leaving a gap in understanding the impact of supplemental resources. This…

The six-year college graduation rate in America in 2021 was 63% (National Center for Education Statistics, 2021). While this rate is on a positive trajectory, it allows room for improvement, especially considering the differences in college graduation rates across various ethnic and gender groups. In the state of the study, the current six-year…

Peer tutoring is beneficial as a method of education because it allows students with different learning styles to work together in comfortable settings to complete academic assignments that will improve their grades. Peer tutoring gives students of all skill levels the chance to collaborate, democratically, and amicably work on academic…

Supplemental instruction (SI) confers student success, as represented by grades, knowledge retention, and student engagement. However, studies often report professional, not undergraduate, program findings. To measure these effects, students studying human anatomy at a university in Ontario, Canada, attended structured (peer-assisted) or…

Near-Peer Mentoring (NPM) is an innovative form of Peer-assisted Learning that has been gaining traction in educational settings. Traditionally, NPM is characterized by a more experienced student (typically a year or more advanced) offering guidance and support to newer, less experienced students, with the aim of helping them navigate the…

This updated 2022 annotated bibliography reviews nine postsecondary peer cooperative learning programs that have been implemented nationally and internationally to increase student achievement. A number of the publications report how they adapted their programs due to COVID-19 restrictions and online delivery platforms. They have been so satisfied…

The purpose of this descriptive non-experimental mentorship study was to first, examine the correlation between peer mentorship relationships, mentorship effectiveness, peer mentee/student self-efficacy, and mentee/student academic progression. A cross-sectional survey method approach was used to determine the outcomes for 2nd- year and beyond…

In this collaborative action research project three researchers and six primary teachers in two Greek mainstream schools developed a peer tutoring programme for 130 students, 11 of whom were students with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). Through exploring new roles for researchers and teachers, the aim of this study was to…

Previous meta-analyses on peer tutoring have mainly included studies using treatment-control/comparison design and excluded studies that adopted pre-test-post-test design. However, some recent meta-analyses on other interventions adopting pre-test-post-test design revealed that certain crucial intervention moderators should be considered when…

Peer and near-peer teaching programs are common in medical undergraduate courses. However, there are no studies that have investigated the effectiveness of a near-peer teaching program on the academic performance of undergraduate students pursuing sport and exercise science coursework. This study was conducted to analyze the effectiveness of such…

The academic effects of learning statistics and probability through peer tutoring were analysed in the research reported on here. Two hundred and eight students enrolled in Grades 7, 8 and 9 participated. Fixed- and same-age peer tutoring was implemented 3 times per week for 6 weeks. Each tutoring session lasted approximately 25 minutes. The main…

Meta-analysis of single-case experimental designs may further knowledge about evidence-based practices for students needing remedial or special education. To contribute to evidence-based practice, a multivariate multilevel meta-analysis was used to synthesize the effectiveness of peer tutoring interventions on both academic and social-behavior…

Schools need cost and resource-efficient strategies to improve the academic performance of students with autism spectrum disorder (ASD). High-quality research demonstrates peer-mediated interventions effects on improved social skills for students with ASD. However, effects of peer-mediated interventions on academic outcomes are less understood…

This paper examines the successes and challenges of a Supplemental Instruction/Peer Assisted Learning (SI/PAL) scheme at an Irish Higher Education Institute that was the outcome of a co-working approach between academic staff and the Students' Union. It considers how novel approaches can enhance student experience, support student learning and…
