Purposeful peer classroom interactions not only enhance learning and belonging, but they also contribute to student confidence and self-efficacy. Samantha Paskvan, a biochemistry student at the University of Washington, illustrates the trajectory of a student who feels empowered by positive peer and faculty relationships:

The teachers in our biology department are really interested in active learning, and I found that that type of learning really resonated with me. It’s very collaborative working in small groups and having lots of discussion during lecture. I had one professor in genetics the fall quarter of my junior year who dedicated so much time to his students and was really clear about expectations and just was the most phenomenal teacher I ever had. At the very end of the quarter, I just walked up to him after the last lecture and I said, “Thank you so much for a great quarter. Are you accepting undergraduate research students?”
