Supplemental Instruction

Supplemental Instruction (SI) was first applied by Deanna C. Martin from the University of Missouri-Kansas City in 1973 to support college courses with high failure and withdrawal rates.  It was designed to support large introductory courses and give entering students a chance to learn “study skills on the subject”. 

We also offer Supplemental Instruction during regular semester in some of the courses.
