dc.description.abstractThe paper evaluates the extent to which peer assistance is practiced in learning institutions in a case study of universities in Kenya. The main objective of this study is to evaluate the extent to which academic staff in universities share the acquired knowledge through peer assistance. The study was carried out in the charted universities as the unit of analysis and the heads of departments has the unit of observation. A sample size of 179 heads of departments was selected and data was collected from 155 respondents. The data was collected by use of questionnaires. The study established that peer assistance was taking place in universities although 59% the academic staff were unwilling to share the acquired knowledge. Unwillingness to share knowledge and lack of structured peer assistance among the academic staff were the leading challenges to the low level of peer assistance in universities. The study recommends creating an awareness of the importance of peer assistance in the learning institutions.
