Supplemental Instruction

Welcome to Supplemental Instruction (SI)

The Supplemental Instruction (SI) program at Southern Illinois University Edwardsville (SIUE) is a non-remedial, institution-wide approach to retention developed by Deanna C. Martin, Ph.D. at the University of Missouri-Kansas City. Supplemental Instruction (SI) is an academic assistance program that increases student performance and retention. The SI program targets traditionally difficult academic courses--those that have a high percentage rate of D or F grades and withdrawals--and provides regularly scheduled, out-of-class, peer facilitated sessions. SI does not identify high-risk students, but rather identifies high risk courses..

Key Elements of the Program:

SI identifies high-risk courses instead of high-risk students.
SI provides a vehicle for developing essential academic skills in regular credit-bearing courses.
SI participation is voluntary and open to all students in the targeted course.
SI leaders attend all the lectures for the targeted course and hold 3 group study sessions outside of class.
SI is supervised by a trained professional staff member.
SI is offered only in classes where faculty members support SI.
SI leaders have usually taken the designated course with the faculty member who is currently teaching the course.
SI leaders work to facilitate group interaction and provide study strategies for success rather than lecture.
