| Abstract: | Reciprocal peer tutoring (RPT) is a cooperative learning strategy that capitalizes on the benefit students receive from preparing to tutor one another (Pigott, Fantuzzo, and Clement, 1986; Wolfe, Fantuzzo, and Wolfe, 1986). In this study, the effects of RPT on the academic achievement, academic self-efficacy, and test anxiety of 47 undergraduate students were investigated. Students developed a series of test questions, used these questions to quiz each other prior to unit examinations, and provided corrective feedback to the questions developed. Findings indicated that the RPT procedure had no statistically significant effects on either achievement or self-efficacy, but did increase test anxiety. Three tables present study findings. An appendix, with an additional table, provides information about the instruments used. (Contains 32 references.) (Author/SLD) |
