Academic Support Partners to Help Your Students: An OFE Partners Session Online
Week 4 of the “Be a Strong Student” campaign urges students to “seek academic help.” While this might involve students reaching out to their instructors, faculty are not on their own when it comes to supporting students academically. Yet instructors might not always be aware of the types of resources they can refer their students to or incorporate into their courses. Join us for this session, and learn more about the available support from representatives of the Center for Academic Success and Tutoring (CAST) and the Center for Writing Excellence (CWE). Questions welcome!
