Margarita's study is interesting. It raises, perhaps, the importance of
training for students to act as peer teachers? Isn't it possible
otherwise that they may view their role as imparting expertise (knowledge)
rather than supporting that development in others? Also, it's possible
that students as peer teachers are modelling what they've encountered?
It would be really interesting to follow up with a student perception
study of some kind, since there are many possible explanations.
