Learning Today…
Leading Tomorrow!
Celebrate active learning at our 14th Annual Conference
held from Wednesday to Saturday,
May 27-30, 2026.
The conference welcomes prospective, new, and experienced practitioners of active learning models. Expert panels by recognized leaders in active learning, and presentations by practitioners, will provide opportunities to share practical takeaways and gain cross-model insights.
What is Peer-Led Team Learning?
Students work in groups to solve challenging problems by debating, negotiating, and building consensus under the guidance of a trained peer leader. Peer leaders are students who have successfully completed the course and have strong interpersonal skills. They are the students who ask how and why things work the way they do, facilitating the learning of group members, and they do not provide the answers.

Queen Mary Peer-Led Team Learning
Congratulations to Tony Michael and Sally Faulkner (and the Queen Mary University of London team) on the awards from Advance HE! QMUL’s team, composed of faculty, staff and a senior peer leader, were honoured to receive a prestigious national award – a Collaborative Award for Teaching Excellence from Advance HE in the United Kingdom. Crucially the award reflects both QMUL’s national impact (through our work with members of the Association for Peer Learning and Support) and our international work with PLTLIS.
