Area of Science:

  • Medical Education
  • Higher Education Pedagogy

Background:

  • UNSW Australia Medicine program implements peer learning by mixing adjacent student cohorts in shared courses.
  • This evaluation focuses on the student experience of peer learning, identifying benefits and concerns for junior and senior medical students.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To explore the student experience of peer learning within a vertically integrated medical program.
  • To determine the benefits and concerns associated with vertical integration for junior and senior students.

Main Methods:

  • A Peer Learning Questionnaire was administered to 1608 medical students at UNSW Australia in 2012.
  • Data included 26 fixed-response and 2 open-ended items on vertical integration and near-peer teaching.
  • Examination data from integrated and non-integrated courses (2011-2013) were compared.

Main Results:

  • Valid responses were received from 328 students (20% response rate).
  • 80% of respondents reported positive experiences with vertical integration.
  • Junior students (Year 1) received guidance (87.8%), while senior students (Year 2) improved understanding and confidence (84%).
  • Vertical integration showed minimal impact on examination performance and failure rates.

Conclusions:

  • Vertical integration of students separated by one year in the same course yields positive learning experiences.
  • Students benefit from enhanced learning depth and leadership skill development.
  • Findings are applicable to medical and other professional higher education programs.
