Informal Near-Peer Teaching in Medical Education A Scoping Review

Not yet rated

Extract from Article Abstract:

Background:
Near-peer teaching (NPT) has a longstanding history within medical education. While it is becoming increasingly recognized within medical curricula, its beginnings can be traced back to informal teaching among medical students. Informal NPT such as this is still commonplace. However, it is often overlooked within the literature and has remained hidden from the scrutiny of evidence-based education. There has been minimal research conducted surrounding NPT outside of formal teaching sessions.

Methods:
A scoping PubMed search was conducted after identifying appropriate search terms. Directly relevant and high quality articles were included.
