Learning Assistant model empowers students to lead one another
SPOTLIGHT

Learning Assistant model empowers students to lead one another

For more than two decades at CU Boulder and a decade at CU Denver, the Learning Assistant model has strengthened classroom learning by empowering students to serve as peer mentors and instructional leaders. Now, thanks to a CU Next system award, that impact is expanding systemwide – including at UCCS – marking a new chapter for the nationally recognized approach. Watch the video to see how the Learning Assistant model is evolving at CU – and why it continues to shape the future of teaching and learning.
