Supplemental Instruction
What is SI?
Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a series of weekly study sessions led by trained peer leaders who have successfully completed the course before. SI Leaders attend class alongside students, then host sessions where students can work together on course material, ask questions, and practice problem-solving in a relaxed, supportive environment.
Why attend SI?
- Boost your understanding of challenging material
- Connect with classmates and build study groups
- Learn study strategies tailored to your course
- Improve your course performance and confidence
Who should attend?
Everyone! SI is for all students enrolled in SI-supported courses—not just those struggling. Think of it as group tutoring built into your class.
What to expect in a session:
- Guided discussion of class concepts
- Practice problems, activities, and review games
- Opportunities to ask questions in a supportive space
- Tips from a student who has succeeded in the course
Why partner with SI?
Faculty support is vital for SI success! Professors provide recommendations for strong SI Leaders, announce sessions in class, and encourage participation. Students are more likely to attend when they know their professor supports the program.
Benefits for faculty:
- Reinforces classroom instruction without extra teaching load
- Provides feedback from SI Leaders about student learning
- Supports higher retention and course success rates
Your role as faculty partner:
- Welcome the SI Leader in your class
- Allow 5 minutes for SI Leader announcements and reminders
- Share session information in class and on D2L
- Encourage ALL students to attend, not just those struggling
