SI Leaders serve as model learners of the subject and they
also guide peers to work within a group. Student leaders
benefit from the program because the process reinforces
their own learning and skill in the subject area. SI
leaders are trained in active learning, metacognition,
informal assessment, classroom management, diversity and
inclusion to name a few. SI leaders undergo multiple
trainings every semester, along with frequent session
observations, consultation feedback, and formal performance
feedback evaluations. We are proud of our training,
observation and feedback loop for our SI leaders. Our goal
is to provide constant training, mentoring, skill and
professional development for our leaders, so that they can
best serve the students they support. To become a SI leader,
students undergo an application, test teach, and group
interview process.
