​学术支持 Centers 实践, 学生的责任, and 政策

实践

学术支持 Centers exists to support student learning and academic success. Saint Paul College professional fellows and peer tutors prioritize collaboration and partnership with students to help them reach their unique goals.

Our work is grounded in a strengths-based perspective: We acknowledge each student’s capacity to learn and help them build from their existing skills and experiences in both academic and non-academic contexts.

当我们在特定的作业和项目上支持学生时, we focus on facilitating opportunities for students to learn broader disciplinary concepts, 发展元认知策略, and connect their learning to new contexts throughout their 职业生涯s and personal lives.

会发生什么

辅导是一种对话. 在会议期间, you can expect the tutor to ask you questions about your needs and goals for the meeting.

我们的专业研究员和同行导师将:

• Discuss patterns of errors and methods for improving your work when studying independently
• 他们是否尽力帮助你理解你的任务和关键概念
  
• Offer study strategies to help you learn the material and complete your assignments on your own
• 仔细阅读你的作品，并提出新的想法
• 共享适当的资源, 比如网站或讲义, 这可以帮助你继续提高你的技能.

我们的专业研究员和同行导师不会:

• 检查你的作业是否正确
• 为你工作吗
• 帮助在线测试和测验
• 预测作业成绩
• 校对或编辑你的写作
• 代替你的老师——辅导不能代替上课, 阅读指定文本, 向导师寻求帮助, 或者自学. Rather, tutoring is a supplement to all of these other actions that successful students do.

学生的责任

辅导是学生和导师之间的合作伙伴关系. 因此, students have some responsibilities to ensure an effective and supportive learning experience.

• Before you meet with a tutor, try the assignment on your own and do as much as you can. 复习老师提供的所有材料, 确定你想问导师的具体问题.
• Meet with a tutor at least a day before an assignment is due—and earlier is better. This ensures enough time for learning and practicing the ideas discovered during a tutoring session.
• Arrive to in-person and online tutoring sessions prepared to meet with the tutor. Bring the assignment instructions, work you’ve done so far, and other relevant materials. If you have an online tutoring appointment, email the materials to the tutor before the session.
• 参加你的辅导课程. 这意味着回答导师的问题, 如果你不确定你的导师在说什么，就问问题, 分享你自己的想法, 并实践你的导师分享的新想法.
• Work independently between sessions and make progress on your assignment before working again with a tutor.
• If you miss a class meeting, contact your instructor to receive any missed work and instruction. The tutors are here to answer specific questions you may have after you take part in instructors’ lessons and attempt assignments.
• 在线辅导期间, 尽量避免离开房间或与其他人交谈. 在安静的环境下进行在线辅导是最有成效的, 没有干扰的私人空间.
• Attend scheduled appointments, or communicate with the tutor if you’re no longer able to attend. Please cancel or reschedule at least 30 minutes before your scheduled appointment time. 这将把预约打开给另一个学生.
