补充说明和常见问题

What is 补充说明 (SI)?

补充说明 (SI) is an academic support model that encourages peer-assisted study sessions. It's all about getting together with your classmates to workshop assignments or review class material, led by someone who's previously taken and passed that same course.

How does SI differ from traditional tutoring?

与传统家教不同, SI is tied to a specific course and is designed to support all the students in that course. SI会议侧重于协作, 小组学习, and understanding course material through peer interaction. Tutors, on the other hand, provide more individualized assistance, often on a one-on-one basis.
