As spring blooms , so is SI / Tutoring ! Look for some exciting changes as we transition from Supplemental Instruction and Tutoring to Peer- Assisted Learning Sessions ( PALS ). Peer-Assisted Learning Sessions are free to all students and provide an opportunity for students to get together for group study for historically difficult classes ; the sessions are led by peers who have previously taken and succeeded in the specific courses .
As we transition to PALS , we are excited to announce that Open Labs will now include more Sunday sessions for many labs . We are also increasing our session offerings to include courses such as Full Spine III .
Be on the lookout for more exciting changes coming throughout the Spring Quarter !
