This paper reports on the findings of an approach to peer learning and assessment involving level 4 (first year undergraduates) and level 6 (third year undergraduates) students following Graphic Design programmes at De Montfort University during 2009/10. This article provides an overview of the Graphics Guru and Grasshopper scheme, a description of the context for this development and findings of the scheme, using evaluation outcomes. The findings suggest an overwhelmingly positive response from the students and staff involved. Level 4 students (Grasshoppers) describe their improved skills development, and the benefits of the cross level nature of the work. Level 6 students (Gurus) cite an experience that has stimulated a deeper understanding of their work, as well as developing skills associated with sharing knowledge and developing skills of others. The lecturers involved recognise how the scheme contributes to level 4 induction, the increased confidence of level 6 students and the overall improvement in course cohesion. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR] |
