There are 2 books (so far!) worthy of noting for this class:
Bowen, Jose Antonio, (2012), "Teaching Naked. How Moving Technology out of your College classroom will Improve Student Success", San Fransisco, Jossey-Bass
Senge, Peter, (1994), "The Fifth Discipline Fieldbook", USA, Doubleday
PIDP 3100
I have found the following links to be very informative and helpful in my research into peer learning and how it can benefit the students learning in my classroom.
There were many sites that I found useful, but the following 2 resonated with me:
Wikipedia's definition of peer learning
The definition they use really stood out for me: "learning for everyone, by everyone, about almost anything" (Brazil, 2011)
Peeragogy
Their handbook is interesting in that it is a work in progress and can be contributed to by anyone. Another example of peer learning on a global scale.
Additionally, the articles that Stacey shared with me were an interesting read as well:
Using Peer Teaching in the Classroom
Peer Learning: Enhancing Student Learning Outcomes
Successful Learning: Peer Learning
