Dear SI-PASS Community If you have experience in designing, coordinating, and overseeing peer learning or peer support in higher education, you are invited to take part in the following research study based on your involvement. Before you decide whether or not to take part, it is important for you to understand why the research is being done and what it will involve. Please take time to read the following information carefully, and see the Information Sheet attached. The Association for Peer Learning and Support is carrying out research as part of an initiative to update the previous AdvanceHE Mapping Student-Led Peer Learning in the UK publication (Keenan, 2014<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/www.advance-he.ac.uk/knowledge-h…) This updated research seeks to broaden the scope beyond the UK, and seeks to understand best practices in the co-creation of peer learning and peer support, including an understanding of processes for impact evaluation of peer learning and support, and evaluation of the impact of peer learning and support on student success factors, specifically retention, attainment and employability, marginalised student groups, well-being and belonging. *We welcome all iterations of peer support and learning; this includes, but is not limited to: Peer-Assisted Learning (PAL), Peer Assisted Study Sessions (PASS), Supplementary Information (SI), Student Mentoring, Peer Coaching and Peer Tutoring. For the purpose of the survey, we will use consistent language and use the term 'Peer Learning and Support' but recognise that this will vary across institutions. In addition to this, we will use the term 'Peer Leader' when referring to the student role itself, but do ask you to share the terms you use within your institution (E.g. PAL Leader, PASS Mentor, Peer Supporter, Student Mentor, Champion, Adviser, Ambassador, Rep,Tutor, etc). How to participate: We are collecting data via a JISC Online Survey<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/brighton.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/m… The closing date for responses is Tuesday 31st October 2023 Within the survey there is a link to complete a short qualitative case study<https://urldefense.com/v3/__https:/uclan.onlinesurveys.ac.uk/case-… of your peer learning or peer support scheme. The closing date for case study submissions is Wednesday 15th November 2023.
