This page will guide you through the pieces of making a session plan. While developing your session activities each week, you should choose one of the Collaborative Techniques, then choose a Learning Strategy that supports that CLT. Finally, think about ways in which you would use wait time, redirecting questions, and checking for understanding to facilitate your session.
Used by the SI leader to facilitate peer-led learning, participation and collaboration.
The magic of SI is in the collaboration. Use these techniques in your sessions to encourage participation and active learning.
These are the activities you use to cover class content in your session. Help students learn "how to study" in addition to "what to study."
1. Start with the end in mind - what do you want students to get from the session?
2. Decide what collaborative techniques will work best for that content/skill.
3. Which learning activities work within that collaborative technique.
