TODAY: Student Support Strategies, 3:40pm, OGC 100
It's the middle of the semester and there are a few students in your courses whom you feel are "slipping away." It's not because they're not bright enough...rather they aren't handing in work, they seem puzzled about what assignments are due and when, and seem to be at high risk for failing. We've all had these sorts of situations. What do you do?
This panel and informal roundtable discussion "Intervention Strategies to Help Struggling Students" will give participants an opportunity to discuss and problem-solve how to provoke greater motivation and attention to detail in your lagging students. The panel will feature Christopher McMaster from Education and Debbie Shapiro from the Academic Skills Office.
Thursday, October 29 from 3:40-4:40pm in OGC 100. Cookies and refreshments will be provided!
Sponsored by the Center for Teaching and Learning. This event will be recorded! Contact ctl@augsburg.edu for access.

Please submit your concept proposals, for possible offering in the fall 2016 or spring 2017, by this Friday, October 30, to: honors@augsburg.edu
More details and the application form are available at:
