Technology Assisted Supplemental Instruction

Maximizing Engineering Potential (MEP) offers Supplemental Instruction (SI) for select courses.

What is SI?

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a collaborative, peer-led academic support program designed to help students master challenging coursework. During 50-minute sessions, trained SI student facilitators lead group study sessions that reinforce course concepts and promote effective learning strategies. Each session aligns with the topics covered by faculty that week.

Led by MEP, SI supports students in the College of Engineering by targeting courses that have historically shown low completion rates--often creating bottlenecks that hinder academic progress and delay graduation.

To address these challenges and improve time-to-degree, the MEP Director developed the "Technology-Assisted Supplemental Instruction” (TASI) program in collaboration with the late-chair of the Department of Mechanical Engineering.  TASI leverages technology to expand SI access across all sections of selected high-demand, high-DFW (grade of D, F, or W) courses -- making large-scale academic support more effective, accessible, and equitable.
