The Power of Peers : NPRMs in the EFL Classroom 20770580 Lingley, Dana 関西外国語大学 Kansai Gaidai University open access Near peer role models peer teaching intercultural competence critical incidents study abroad 教育研究報告 EDUCATIONAL RESEARCH AND REPORT Peer teaching is a reciprocal style of learning that traditionally involves older students passing knowledge to younger less capable peers. Utilising this teaching method in the EFL classroom has the potential to bridge the gap between students and materials, increase collaborative learning, and promote active learning. The aim of this paper is to report on a classroom project in which near peer role models (NPRMs) assisted in the teaching of critical incidents within a unit on intercultural communication. Results from an open-ended questionnaire and observations from the facilitator indicated participation of the NPRMs resulted in a more effective and desirable mode of delivery than the more traditional method of studying critical incidents from a textbook. 関西外国語大学・関西外国語大学短期大学部 Kansai Gaidai University 2017-09 eng departmental bulletin paper VoR https://doi.org/10.18956/00007769 https://kansaigaidai.repo.nii.ac.jp/records/7786 10.18956/00007769 AN00046756 0388-1067 研究論集 Journal of Inquiry and Research 106 185 195 https://kansaigaidai.repo.nii.ac.jp/record/7786/files/r106_12.pdf application/pdf 1.2 MB 2017-09-22
