Cambridge Papers in brief: motivational aspects of using near peers as role models

Near peer role models are people who are comparable to ourselves in one or more fundamental way (e.g. age, gender, ethnicity, or past experiences). This Cambridge Paper explainer breaks down how near peer role models can improve learner motivation in the classroom, and gives you ideas about how you could use this with your own students.
