Peer facilitation is a teaching method that involves students working in small groups to learn from each other, share ideas, and solve problems. It can be used to enhance students’ understanding of various topics, such as how the sun benefits the earth.  It can also develop their communication, collaboration, critical thinking, and creativity skills. Peer facilitation is a teaching method that can be applied to any subject and any level of education.

On Monday 18/09/2023, Believe Akportsu was the Lead Peer Facilitator for the practical science session.

The learning outcome of this session was:

  1. Describe the benefits of the sun to the earth

Peer Facilitation as a Teaching Method: How the Sun Benefits the Ear

One way to teach students about the benefits of the sun to the earth is to use peer facilitation. Here are some steps that was followed:

  1. The class divided into groups of 5-10 students.
  2. Each group was given a question or a task related to the topic. For example, list and explain the benefits of the sun to the earth, build and mold a model of the sun and earth, and imagine and describe what would happen if there was no sun.
  3. Each group was allowed some time to discuss and research their question or task. Some resources, such as an article was provided to help find information.
  4. Each group presented their findings to the rest of the class.

5. The class was encouraged to ask questions and give feedback to each group after their presentation
