General Chemistry Peer-Led Team Learning (PLTL) Program at the University of Texas El Paso
The Peer-Led Team Learning (PLTL) Program at the University of Texas at El Paso (UTEP) is a program that provides students with the training necessary to host small workshops for students enrolled in their first two semesters of Chemistry. Peer Leaders are tasked with the responsibility of facilitating learning of Chemistry through the creation of practice problems, reviews and interactive games. As UTEP is a Latinx-serving university, a large portion of Peer Leaders and students are Latinx. Therefore, the PLTL program is empowering students through the development of Peer Leaders' leadership, and the strengthening of students' foundation in Chemistry, making them more likely to succeed in the STEM field. Peer Leaders in the program have witnessed the impact of the COVID-19pandemic on Latinx students and have found ways to adapt to the shift to online learning.
