As a learning support service, Supplemental Instruction (SI) assists students to be successful and persist in their courses by providing an out-of-class, peer-led learning environment intended to compliment traditional class instruction. The SI sessions, led by a Peer Leader (PL), are intended to promote student understanding of course content through guided group activities and the application of different learning strategies for completing assignments and preparing for exams.
