Did that Gen Ed lecture leave you feeling confused?
Do you have pages of notes that made sense in class, but now they don’t?
Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a free service for students in some of our large lecture courses and other challenging classes to help you understand the material by applying it.
And yes, SI sessions are led by students who have previously taken the course, but SI Leaders attend lecture again with you, so they’ll always know what’s going on in the course. SI sessions review important course concepts, predict and practice test items, develop test prep strategies, and discuss readings.
These courses have Think Tank Supplemental Instruction:
INDV 101, Language, Dr. Amy Fountain
INDV 103, An Economic Perspective, Professor J. McBrearty
TRAD 104, Eroticism and Love in the Middle Ages, Professor A. Classen
