During the first class session, the SI leader describes SI and surveys the class to establish a schedule for SI that will be convenient for most students who show interest. From these surveys, the SI leader schedules three or more SI sessions per week. SI sessions normally occur in classrooms near the course classroom instead of in the Learning Assistance Center. SI sessions are open to all students in the course and attendance is on a voluntary basis. SI leaders are students who have demonstrated competence in this or a comparable course.
