Recenzii

"This is a rich resource for those interested in peer tutoring and a clear window into a specific type of peer work for those committed to deepening their understanding of the power of cooperation for learning. One thing that makes this book paticularly powerful is that each author’s work has been detailed, sustained, and extensive. A second is that the three authors speak about peer tutoring from the point of view of projects from three different cultural, social, and linguistic contexts." - Lynda Baloche, International Association for the Study of Cooperation in Education
"The book offers useful strategies for all teachers who want to improve the reading skills of their students through the practice of peer tutoring, a cooperative learning method to manage the diversity of levels in a way that all the students can teach and learn from each other […] A very interesting and practical book which is written in clear language and well-structured that offers many guidelines and resources on how to effectively implement peer tutoring to improve reading skills." - Mariona Corcelles Seuba, Revista de Educación

“Un trabajo completo y riguroso que reúne el conocimiento y la experiencia adquirida hasta el momento en materia de tutoría entre iguales, y que aporta propuestas factibles y reales de utilización en los contextos educativos actuales abordando todos los aspectos y detalles a tomar en consideración para lograr acercar la tutoría entre iguales a las aulas.” -  Marta Flores Coll (Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona), Estudios Sobre Educación


Descriere

Peer tutoring allows a positive use of differences between pupils, turning them into learning opportunities. Yet busy practising and pre-service teachers often remain unfamiliar with research-based principles to guarantee the effectiveness of peer interaction to attain cognitive, socio-emotional and communicative goals. Using Peer Tutoring to Improve Reading Skills offers an evidence-based framework to help teachers understand the approach. Illustrated with models of successful practice from diverse schools across Europe, it provides easy-to-use guidelines for action, showing teachers in primary secondary schools how to enhance pupil motivation and improve reading standards.
