| Sumario: | Purposeful development of student leadership skills through intentionally designed programs is a recent trend in higher education. Many Australasian universities incorporate student leadership programs into their strategic learning and teaching priorities due to the recognised contributions these programs make to achieving goals in student learning, student engagement and the development of future leaders. This is the final report from a project that built the capacity of institutions to develop leadership capability in students, and specifically in minority student groups, through the design and delivery of a national survey of peer leadership and the development of accompanying resources for the interpretation and use of that data. The project will enable institutions to better engage in evidence-based decision-making about the design, delivery and continued improvement of peer leadership programs. Through engagement with international peer leadership networks, the project also offers the Australasian higher education sector its first opportunity to contribute to international benchmarking and scholarship in the evaluation of peer leadership programs. |
