Editor's Notes
- Developing expectations for peer learning https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A7v0NPA7lMDOtGzC9O3PRXJ8F2mywZoG9TapYI_hOkg/edit?usp=sharing If student-centred active learning is about involving students as participants and contributors, how do you set or reset your students' expectations for their engagement as active and collaborative learners? In this session, we will brainstorm ways of developing peer engagement in active learning. Question: How can we develop peer engagement in active learning? The session will also report back on a review of the Video Summaries experiment conducted in our September ALN meeting and share guidance of how to apply it in your own practice. Active Learning Network @ ARU, 21 October 2021, 13:00 – 14:00 Join Microsoft Teams Meeting (Links to an external site.) The session will be open to colleagues from the UK ALN #ARUALN#ARUALN
- We will generate a Tip List we can use or we can share with academic colleagues 11 things? At least two ideas will amount to the same thing 10 seems so final Because there’s always another good idea! Just to make sure! To begin… a little quiet for thinking…
- We came here today because we are curious… We are curious we are motivated… We have at least one idea each – don’t we? Please write down on a notepad or somewhere just one response to our key question. Question: How can we develop peer engagement in active learning? Write your answer as a single coherent and crafted Tip if you can. Try to make it specific and original! ***We will return to you idea later in the session A moment of solitude and contemplation in a busy day – space we need for creative thinking Turkle, S. (2015).

- Rhetorical question: Peer Learning – what do mean? What do we expect? What do we communicate? Participation Collaboration Contribution Co-operation Outer circle Formal Informal Non-Formal
- Scene setting Active learning doesn't stop at the door… neither do peer relationships Formality is not a binary in a student-centred learning environment – it is an organisational term, not experiential **** Non-formality follows the learner and their curiosity, interest, and commitment. It is active, authentic, socially situated and open-ended. **** Co-operation: friends and associates, affinity, open ended, empathetic, listening, ‘working alongside’, negotiated, self-directed, self-determined, conversational, making connections, attitudes, dispositions, interests, expertise, tacit **** Collaboration: task orientated, bounded, closed, skills, working to the same end, sharing responsibilities, team work, group work, assigned roles and responsibilities, regular, clear Reference: Eraut, M.

- So, How can we develop peer engagement in active learning? Consider the idea you brought into the session. Modify it if necessary. Type it into the Chat Begin with an asterisk * so the answers stand out Then, Review and like Then add to the shared Google Doc: https://docs.google.com/document/d/1A7v0NPA7lMDOtGzC9O3PRXJ8F2mywZoG9TapYI_hOkg/edit?usp=sharing By the way I have 11! Just in case! Develop peer engagement by: Setting a clear expectation of what to do Establishing ground rules to ensure inclusivity Being there to encourage creativity and risk-taking while ensuring and a sense of safety Intriguing peers and making them equally curious – consider conundrums, problems, humour Ensuring the situation appeals to the students – it invites, it is relevant and inspires Accommodating peers in focused and productive effort - working together is evidently a good use of time, for all People know many hands make light work: the challenge embrace diverse knowledge, skills and/or dispositions Being together involves a fair exchange of knowledge and effort. It feels reciprocal and mutually beneficial Allowing for moments of excitement, fun, fluency and irony to promote self-efficacy Modelling what is expected Being realistic about what can be successfully achieved Creating a empathetic space in which friendships and collaborations can grow
