How Peer Learning can Boost your Academics

-

Peer learning is wonderful for our academics, offering a unique approach, for peers and for teachers. To grasp complex concepts, personally, I find that when a friend teaches me a challenging topic, it feels more relatable and easier to understand. This is because my friend uses language with examples that I understand and resonate with, making difficult concepts so-so easy, and fun. Being on the same wavelength allows for vivid conversations, making learning less intimidating and more engaging. With your best friends, there’s no fear of judgment, and conversations can flow freely without any hesitation. This creates a safe space to clear doubts and dive deeper into those mystic concepts.

Additionally, asking questions to peers feels more comfortable than asking teachers. With friends, there’s no fear of judgment, and conversations can flow freely without hesitation. This creates a safe space to clear doubts and dive deeper into the topic.

However, Peer Learning is not just about receiving knowledge, it’s a two-way process. When I teach my friends, I gain an even deeper understanding of the subject. Teaching compels me to simplify complex ideas how my friend will best understand, ensuring, not only, I’ve grasped every aspect of the topic. This process strengthens my understanding and improves my ability to articulate ideas, making Peer Learning a rewarding, both to the teacher and the learner, catalyzing

The Astounding Eye Opener "Having grown up in India and experienced the rigors of our education system, my visit to Scotland was nothing short of an eye-opener. The stark difference between how children are taught in the two countries made me reflect deeply on the essence of learning itself. One particular experience from my time in Scotland stands out vividly in my memory. During a history lesson, the teacher asked us to write a poem inspired by the events we were studying. My brain, wired by years of Indian schooling, immediately started organizing facts and details into my poem. I crammed dates, names, and key moments, thinking that was the way to excel. But when we shared our work with the class, I was stunned! My Scottish classmates, even those who admitted they weren’t great at academics, had created these beautiful, deeply emotional poems. They wrote about the suffering of the people, the human stories behind the facts, and the lessons we could learn from history. Their cre...

Cutting through challenges and barriers with hard work and determination is the essence of what drives us to achieve our goals. Imagine an intimidating task ahead—initially, it feels overwhelming, and you may find yourself completely clueless. This is where many give up, overwhelmed by the sheer magnitude of the work ahead of us. How is what is not present, not yet, and just an illusion is deceiving us into being overwhelmed? Success lies in refusing to back out and focusing on climbing the first step. This process can be likened to the concept of activation energy in chemistry. To initiate a reaction, a certain energy threshold must be crossed. Similarly, in life, in the things we do, the initial effort requires some energy, a push, and persistence. But once you push past this threshold, progress becomes easier, and soon you enjoy a joyride. The first step may be the hardest, but it is also the most crucial. Believing in yourself, committing to the task, and completing your work selfl...
