Is peer tutoring beneficial in the context of school resuscitation training?

Abstract: First year pupils at a Cardiff comprehensive school were trained in cardiopulmonary resuscitation, 106 by the teacher only and 137 by the teacher assisted by older pupils (peer tutoring). Scores in a multiple choice theory test and in practical skill assessment showed no significant difference between instruction methods, but boys taught by the teacher assisted by older pupils expressed less willingness to resuscitate in an emergency than girls instructed by either method (P < 0.01). Girls had higher scores in… Show more

“…Peer-led training generally reduces the demand for instructors, which can simplify logistics and reduce costs. [85][86][87] Likewise, self-directed video-based training eliminates the need for CPR instructors. Some of these programs, such as the video-based training kit described by Isbye et al 92 have the additional advantage of a short training time (Ϸ22 minutes) and can be used at home by others.…”
