Book excerpt: The Rowman & Littlefield Guide for Peer Tutors introduces college students to the field of peer tutoring, providing a theoretical background and practical guidance for peer tutors in higher education. Taking an innovative approach firmly grounded in the science of learning and cognition, the text guides college students in thinking critically about their work as educators and in making informed choices in working with learners. A vibrant, engaging read, the text covers topics essential for all peer tutors, across writing, mathematics, the sciences, languages, and other disciplines: the brain-based reality of learning, active and collaborative pedagogies, the role of learning centers in colleges and universities, models for tutoring, the transition to college, metacognition, study strategies, online environments, and much more. An ideal supporting text for both tutor training programs and courses for peer educators, this book provides support for learning and writing center administrators in welcoming college students to the field of peer-led learning and for tutors in the work of acting as guides and mentors to the fields of inquiry that exist within the academy.

Book excerpt: Peer tutors have the ability to make a positive influence in the lives of their peers with disabilities. The Peer Tutor Student Handbook will provide the resources and training needed to make their time in the special education classroom mutually beneficial. Here's what students had to say about their involvement as peer tutors in a special education classroom: "This experience helped me grow as a person. I wanted to do this so I could understand how to help others and learn different ways to communicate with different people. I started out being a peer tutor and teaching them, but I ended up being their friend." Katy, Peer Tutor "My favorite part was just being able to interact with students in the special education classroom and have fun and get to see who they were. They're people just like us. They're a little bit different but they're still someone." Peter, Peer Tutor "I became a peer tutor because I want to be a special education teacher when I grow up. My favorite part of the job was getting to know the kids. Having this experience made me grow as a person." Chrissy, Peer Tutor Together, Candice and Suzanne have over 40 years of teaching experience in special education and have developed peer tutor programs in every classroom they've worked in. Their peer tutoring model of reverse inclusion maximizes peer interaction in natural and appropriate ways. They were inspired to share their experiences recruiting and training peer tutors knowing the positive effects that these programs have on both special education students and the general education students who work as peer tutors. Used in conjunction with the Teacher's Guide to Peer Tutoring (purchased separately), this manual sets the standard for students working as peer tutors. The Peer Tutor Student Handbook belongs to Styer-Fitzgerald Publishing's line of outstanding educational products, including the Styer-Fitzgerald Program for Functional Academics. Unique among special education curricula, the Styer-Fitzgerald Program provides a comprehensive approach to teaching functional skills to students with mild, moderate, and severe disabilities, including autism.

Download or read book Peer-assisted Learning written by Keith Topping and published by Routledge. This book was released on 1998-07 with total page 390 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) involves children in school consciously assisting others to learn, and in so doing learning more effectively themselves. It encompasses peer tutoring, peer modeling, peer education, peer counseling, peer monitoring, and peer assessment, which are differentiated from other more general "co-operative learning" methods. PAL is not diluted or surrogate "teaching"; it complements and supplements (but never replaces) professional teaching--capitalizing on the unique qualities and richness of peer interaction and helping students become empowered democratically to take more responsibility for their own learning. In this book, PAL is presented as a set of dynamic, robust, effective, and flexible approaches to teaching and learning, which can be used in a range of different settings. The chapters provide descriptions of good practice blended with research findings on effectiveness. They describe procedures that can be applied to all areas of the school curriculum, and can be used with learners of all levels of ability, including gifted students, students with disabilities, and second-language learners. Among the distinguished contributors, many are from North America, while others are from Europe and Australia. The applicability of the methods they present is worldwide. Peer-Assisted Learning is designed to be accessible and useful to teachers and to those who employ, train, support, consult with, and evaluate them. Many chapters will be helpful to teachers aiming to replicate in their own school environments the cost-effective procedures described. A practical resources guide is included. This volume will also be of interest to faculty and researchers in the fields of education and psychology, to community educators who want to learn about the implications of Peer Assisted Learning beyond school contexts, and to employers and others involved in post-school training.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A successful peer tutoring program in special education classrooms depends on teachers recruiting dedicated and dependable students who have positive attitudes and the desire to help others.

This guide together with the Peer Tutor Student Handbook (purchased separately) are designed to help teachers develop and maintain a successful and mutually rewarding peer tutor program. "I had the pleasure of observing the Peer Tutoring program developed by Dr. Styer and Suzanne Fitzgerald. This is an amazing program that promotes awareness of individuals with disabilities as well as provides peers the skills needed to support and develop friendships. The way this program is structured allows for these skills to generalize across the school environment and models friendships and the acceptance of others." Dr. Nicole Bain, Psychologist and Autism Expert Together, Candice and Suzanne have over 40 years of teaching experience in special education and have developed peer tutor programs in every classroom they've worked in. Their peer tutoring model of reverse inclusion maximizes peer interaction in natural and appropriate ways. They were inspired to share their experiences recruiting and training peer tutors knowing the positive effects that these programs have on both special education students and the general education students who work as peer tutors.
