Hello all, I am wondering if I could get a little help here. I know that I have read about and we often talk about the peer group being the factor with the single greatest impact on academic success. Does anyone have any actual articles that state this. I'm wanting to put this in my Success Center planning document as a need for successful, diverse, and effective tutors and SI leaders working in the center. Basically I want to document and cite that successful peer educators, either tutors or SI leaders, who reflect the diversity of students on campus and are selected, trained, and supervised are perfect for providing a supportive learning environment and shaping students love of learning and because of this they successfully impact the tutees or student's academic success. Any Help? Does anyone have any studies that document this notion? Thanks in advance for your input! Todd Todd S.
