Description
This talk reports findings about the teaching method cross-age peer tutoring (CAPT) with regard to high school students‘ academic achievement in electromagnetic radiation, and their motivation. Within CAPT, elder students (tutors) teach younger ones (tutees). Additionally to previous studies, revealing evidence that CAPT works effectively in specific contexts, the outcomes of tutors and tutees are compared to those of a control group. The results show that the level of knowledge increases significantly, revealing that the effect of CAPT is in comparable order with that of the control group. Additionally, here was a positive effect on the motivation observed.
