Supplemental Instruction Study Sessions

Supplemental Instruction study sessions offer students an additional way to learn course content and are facilitated by students who were successful in the class previously.

Study sessions integrate active learning strategies to help students improve their study skills and better understand course content. These sessions do not re-lecture or introduce new material.
