Subject: Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Project Conference 2004

The Peer Assisted Learning (PAL) Project at Bournemouth University is funded
through FDTL3. We will be hosting our End of Project Conference on
Wednesday, 21st January 2004. I enclose a registration form, a call for
proposals and guidance notes for submission of proposals. Please draw this
information to colleagues who may also be interested.

We will be pleased to welcome:
* practitioners of PAL and other similar student-to-student support
schemes such as PASS, SI and mentoring, whether students, academic or
central staff
* staff working in HE and FE keen to learn more about PAL and similar
schemes

The aims of the conference are to:

* Share the outcomes of the PAL Project with others
* Promote and review the principles and practices of PAL
* Examine diversity and future directions in the practice of PAL
* Draw on and contribute to the experience of students involved with
PAL
* Examine the theory of and evidence base for PAL
* Promote the use of PAL Project training materials

Bournemouth University staff and students will present their experiences of
setting up and running PAL and we are extending an invitation to
practitioners at a range of institutions to present with us. The conference
will also be used to disseminate PAL Project materials and findings that
have come about through the three years of operation of the PAL Project at
Bournemouth.
