Abstract

Through tutoring, academic coaching on study skills, peer-led group review sessions and academic support workshops, the Lehman College Tutoring Center and the Science Learning Center, engage students in active learning and the development of skills that can transfer across courses. This interactive session will explore innovative online academic support approaches, including how to engage students and tutors online using student response systems, web apps, and active learning strategies. These strategies can be used in tutoring, workshops, and online classrooms.
