Abstract: | Evaluated K. Kitchener and J. Hurst's (See PA, Vol 52:Issue 4) education through student interaction discussion program from 110 students' evaluations and performance on classroom tests in an undergraduate psychology class. 10 discussion groups were formed with 5 experimental conditions: (a) student facilitator, with the education through student interaction training workshop; (b) student facilitator without the education through student interaction training workshop; (c) without the student facilitator, with the education through student interaction training workshop; (d) without the student facilitator without the education through student interaction training workshop, with the education through student interaction manual; (e) without the student facilitator, without the training workshop, and without the education through student interaction manual. Results support the use of the program with a student facilitator and/or a training workshop and indicate that having students discuss course content without structure, student facilitator, or training was inadequate. Implications for counseling psychologists in the role of consultants to faculty are discussed. (PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2010 APA, all rights reserved) |
