The SAM Book is a culminating project that allows Peer Leaders to reflect on what they have learned in the SAM course and in their first semesters as Peer Leaders. The essays in each SAM Book present advice for the next year’s new Peer Leaders. In addition, the essays contribute to our understanding of best practices for fostering collaborative and active learning in PLTL groups. To open and read each SAM Book, view the pdfs below.
