The workshops are interactive-that is, the more students are involved, the more they learn. Students commit themselves to a regular Cal Poly class and two sessions per week in a specialized workshop. The math workshops at Cal Poly have been successful in providing unique environments for study and learning since 1988. Workshops are designed to operate directly with specific sections of math courses so that all participants are working on similar material from the same instructor at each workshop session. Students are involved in small group discussion and practice of course material focusing on a specific course.
Primary focus are courses for first year freshman and transfer students.
