What is SI?
Supplemental
Instruction (SI) sessions are weekly review sessions for students enrolled in
difficult modules. Students registered in these difficult modules get together
regularly, and with the help of an SI leader, master the course content.
SI
sessions are friendly and informal.
SI
provides a chance for you to
# get together with students
in your class# organise your material
# compare notes
# discuss important concepts
# develop strategies for studying the module
# be well prepared for taking your tests and exams
SI is for
all students.
All SI
sessions are facilitated by a trained SI leader.
What is an SI Leader?
SI
leaders are students like you
# BUT they have taken the module they facilitate before
# PLUS they earned a high mark
# AND they are recommended by the faculty
Who is my SI Leader?
