CEM 3020 Principles and Methods of Peer Tutoring for Chemistry Content
1 Hours
Prerequisites: Permission of instructor and completion of course in which student will peer tutor. Peer tutors must have and maintain a minimum 2.00 grade point average, a minimum 3 .00 in the course in which the student plans to tutor, and a minimum 3.00 grade point average for any math prerequisite required for the course in which the student will peer tutor.
This course explores selected topics in methods and effective application of peer tutoring chemistry in a university setting. It stresses “hands on” experiences typical of peer tutoring, under the supervision of a faculty mentor. Possible peer tutoring functions may include helping conduct classes or laboratory sessions, leading study or discussion sessions, and helping students master the course material. Peer tutors will neither grade nor have access to any other student r~cords for the class. This course may be
repeated, but onl 1 credit hour ma be counted toward the chemisty maor·or or chemistry minor.
