Peer Assisted Learning at Lund University: Evaluation results

Malm, Joakim LU (2017) Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Conference
Abstract
A Peer Assisted Learning/Supplemental Instruction (SI) programme was introduced at Lund University in 1994 and has grown immensely since the start. Today we have more than 4000 students attending SI annually with ~230 SI-leaders working as facilitators during sessions. Evaluation data from the programme will be presented – both quantitative and qualitative. Qualitative data are primarily centered on attendance and the programme’s impact on retention and improving students study results. Qualitative data focus on questions like why students attend SI and what they gain both from a course and a general perspective. We will also look into potential benefits SI-leaders get and to what extent they may use these in working life after graduation.
