Peer-Learning Assistants in Large and High-Risk Classes
Peer-Learning Assistants (PLAs)
are expert undergraduate students who assist in the learning process in and
outside of the classroom. In this
session we will describe and demonstrate different ways in which PLAs are
successfully used in classes at UAA. Join Professors from Biology, Math and
Physics to discuss and show how they’ve implemented Peer Learning Assistants in
their courses.
