| Supplemental Instruction Supplemental Instruction (S.I.) is a series of weekly review sessions for students taking historically difficult courses. S.I. is provided for all students who want to improve their understanding of course material and improve their grades. Attendance at sessions is voluntary. For you the student, it's a chance to get together with people in your class to compare notes, to discuss important concepts, to develop strategies for studying the subject, and to test yourselves before your professor does so that when he/she does, you'll be ready. At each session, you will be guided through course material by your S.I. leader, a competent student who has previously taken the course. Contact: Rick Oster | ||
