At the heart of PLTL is you, the Peer Leader. As a peer of the students in your workshop group, you serve as a facilitator of learning. Becoming a successful workshop facilitator is a process that requires various means of promoting collaborative, team-based approaches. This work, Facilitating Team-Based Learning: A Peer Leader's Guide to Leading Learning Activities provides creative, team-based learning strategies created by Peer Leaders, learning specialists and faculty. This resource is designed to support you as you plan your weekly workshop.
This guide provides structure to peer-led workshop groups through the practice of process techniques and activities. Each is focused on active learning by showing students and yourself:
- How to approach learning challenging course content
- How to explore concepts so that they will be retained for higher-level courses
- How to ask the right questions
- How to cooperate with, work with, and learn from your peers
- How to reinforce your knowledge for examinations and beyond
- How to study effectively and efficiently
- How to develop a network of reliable colleagues who can positively reinforce your learning environment.
Learning these skills is essential for students in entry-level courses and for those who have recently entered a university environment. The hope is that this Guide will enhance your role as a Peer Leader in order to improve student outcomes. Join us in advancing this effort by making contributions for future editions.
