Follow Me Into Math: Near‐Peer Influencers Take the Stage
School Science and Mathematics, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Young people like to be entertained, and to entertain others. What if students were to invest enough of their time and effort into learning topics from our mathematics courses to become experts in the eyes of their peers? In this study we positioned college students and high school students as mathematical performers on the stage in front of ...
