January's Instructional Strategy
Peer Tutoring - Effect Score of .55
The overall effect of the use of peers as co-teachers is quite
powerful. It is an excellent method to teach students to
become their own teachers. Peer tutoring has many
academic and social benefits for both those tutoring and
those being tutored. If the peer intervention is more student
controlled, such as peers being involved in setting goals,
monitoring performance, evaluating performance, and
selecting rewards, the effects are greater than when the
teacher controls the situation. When students become
teachers of others, they learn as much as those they are
teaching.
