• <PP Slides Handout> The essential slides are arranged six per page.

• <Role of Peer Learning with “Belonging” at the College> Based on Australian 2019 Conference participant breakout session discussions.

• <Course-based Learning Assistance Guide (90+ pages)> This generic guide could be useful for any peer study group program. The draft document reflects edits from several teams of reviewers and field-tested by peer program managers globally.

• <Antiracism policies and practices for peer study groups (33 pages)> Created due to an obvious gap in the CLA Guide that did not explicitly address issues of race. This draft document underwent extensive review by a team from Colleagues of Color Social Justice. More about them at <socialjustice.work>

• <Annotated Bibliography Peer Learning Groups> Over 1,650 publications on six major programs with a separate academic subject and topic bibs. EndNote bib database can be downloaded.

• <Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Podcast> My audio podcast with interviews of student peer leaders, updates on new publications by others, and more. Upcoming are interviews with peer study leaders at 23 institutions in Australia, Canada, and the United States.

• <Equity Podcast: Equal Outcomes for all Students> My audio podcasts with narrated versions of all my publications: Supplemental Instruction, peer learning, Universal Design for Learning, and more. I employ an interactive set of synthetic voices to make the listening process enjoyable and sometimes even fun. Each episode is about 30 minutes. Eventually, these will be turned into free audiobooks.
