[Si-pass] Webinar on PAL in Math

Hi, We're pleased to promote the following webinar on Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) in Math, taking place on Wednesday 20th March 2-3pm (UK time): ************** Using Peer Assisted Learning to support first-year Maths modules in Engineering and Physical Sciences Nicola Allett and Pinar Ozbeser, Aston University, UK This presentation focuses on a Peer Assisted Learning scheme implemented at Aston University to support first-year undergraduate Maths modules in Engineering and Physical Sciences. We will discuss the main features of the scheme and how it was introduced and evaluated using a Maths diagnostic tool. We will then present our initial analysis, which indicates that PAL has a positive impact on student outcomes (learning gain) when students are highly engaged in PAL. Finally, we will share the lessons we learned from establishing the scheme and invite attendees to share their own practice. ************** If you would like to sign up to receive the MS Teams invitation, please use this form: https://forms.office.com/e/U5EtMAhwC8 Elena _____________________________ Dr Elena Luchinskaya, SFHEA Maths SIG Lead Senior Teaching Fellow in Business Analytics Lancaster University Management School UK
