About Peer-Led Team Learning

Peer-Led Team Learning (PLTL) is a pedagogy in which students work in small groups under the supervision of a peer leader. PLTL has been successfully implemented in many disciplines at many colleges and universities. Results suggest that PLTL improves student learning more effectively than traditional discussion sessions.

Here are some links to websites with lots of PLTL Resources:
