What are the qualifications of an SI leader?
SI leaders are successful students. In order to be considered an SI leader for a particular course, the student must have a strong understanding of the course content and be able to articulate that understanding to others. This means that the SI leader would have earned a grade of a B or higher in the course. Beyond this obvious requirement, SI leaders need to possess good time management skills, be able to work with groups, and occasionally with individual students. They also need to be flexible so that they can adapt their learning strategies as needed. Strong computer skills are a plus as some SI sessions may be held online.
