Directed Learning Activities

All directed learning activities have instructional design and curricular connectedness to particular courses. Directed Learning Activities may be used to meet supplemental learning requirements.

Study Groups
Study Group: Study groups are focused learning sessions led by a Success Center facilitator that address the needs of a small group. Classroom instructors work through the Success Center Instructional Specialists to develop specified curriculum that is delivered by apprentice tutors. Study groups have a strong instructional design component that is tied to the classroom instruction. Study groups may be used to meet supplemental learning requirements.
