Supplemental Instruction (SI) is an academic assistance program that utilizes peer-assisted study sessions. SI sessions are regularly scheduled, and informal review sessions where students compare notes, discuss readings, develop organizational tools, and predict test items. The program is targeted towards historically difficult courses with high DFW rates.

The SI leader is a student who has taken the course before at the university and performed well, receiving either an A or B. The student is then recommended by a faculty member to sit in the course again, be a model student, and hold two or three one-hour sessions outside of the class. The leader is responsible for being the facilitator in the sessions, planning what content the sessions will focus on, promoting discussion, and prompting group discussion.

If you work with a student who is not enrolled in any of these specific sections, you can always tell them they are more than welcome to attend. The caveat of attending a session that is not with their professor is that the SI Leader may be focusing on something different at that moment.

Fall 2025 Supplemental Instruction Schedule

EAC= Eagle Achievement Center, 4th floor, Library

*Sessions run Monday-Thursday, as indicated. Sessions may change and will be announced by SI leader.
