Children's Ways of Experiencing Peer Interaction.
Williams, Pia
Early Child Development and Care, v168 p17-38 Aug 2001
Interviewed 22 children, ages 7-9, in a mixed-age classroom about their conceptions of peer interaction and collaboration and about what it means to teach someone something. Found that children know they can teach their peers and are able to shift between acting as teacher and as learner in the active role. (DLH)
