Supplemental Instruction
Concisely, Supplemental Instruction is a peer-led, group study paired with a specific class.
More fully, Supplemental Instruction bolsters student success by pairing a previously successful student with a faculty partner to support that faculty member's courses according to their own content and teaching style. The S.I. leader then offers multiple opportunities each week for students to attend structured, group study sessions tailored to their specific course and instructor. S.I. leaders create session plans under the advice of their faculty partner, attend class meetings to maintain current knowledge, and are guided and observed by the campus S.I. specialist.
Currently S.I. is mostly available in select English, Math, and Science courses, but any faculty member may request an S.I. leader by contacting Bryant Windham at bwindham@mclennan.edu.
