Abstract
This article focuses on the role peer-mediated instructional approaches may play in improving the academic and social performance of secondary learning disabled students. Two peer-teaching programs, Classwide Peer Tutoring and Classwide Student Tutoring Teams, are described, as well as findings from recent investigations in mainstream and resource room settings. Implications for teacher preparation are reviewed.Keywords
