Mobile learning in education has evolved over the last decade and a half. Associated with this evolution is the increased popularity of teaching how to code using mobile technologies. Then again, finding alternative methods to teach coding, such as peer teaching, might affect learning. Peer teaching is a reciprocal learning relationship between peers. This mixed method case study aimed to explore students' perceptions of peer teaching in an mLearning coding course. Twentysix participant learners, and three peer teachers, voluntarily participated in the study for six weeks. 77% of participants found that learning from their peers was fun, satisfying and more informative than they expected. However, 42% of participants highlighted that they did not have enough confidence to peer-teach the material they learned during the peer teaching process. Thus, it is important to design a teaching process which considers culture, students' expectations, and students' needs, because those factors affect the learning process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
