Description:
Peer-tutoring is a common resource and has well-documented advantages for both the students and the institution. Less well documented is the fact that such a program also greatly benefits tutors-this was demonstrated in a recent article in the Journal of Dental Education (JDE).
Join Drs. Zsuzsa Horvath and Christine Wankiiri-Hale in this free webinar to review how the University of Pittsburgh School of Dental Medicine (Pitt SDM) created and assessed a credit-bearing, peer-tutoring program to provide support to struggling students. They will also review updated outcomes since the JDE article was published.
Learning Objectives:
• Identify ways to design a student peer-tutoring program.
• List benefits of a student peer-tutoring program to the institution, tutees and tutors.
• Identify steps to create a new student peer-tutoring program or update your existing one.
Additional details will be posted as soon as information is available.
