Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a series of weekly study sessions facilitated by a
trained student leader. Attendance is voluntary and open to anyone enrolled in the
selected course. The study sessions will help students improve understanding of course
material, develop study strategies, and prepare for tests. SI sessions are usually an
hour long twice a week and are available for classes in accounting, biology, chemistry,
English, history, math, and other challenging courses.
Students and faculty have reported very positive experiences with SI and believe it has
helped increase success in their classes.
