Position Summary

This recruitment will be used to fill multiple part-time (a maximum of 12-15 hours per week) Supplemental Instruction Leader positions for the Academic Success Center at Oregon State University (OSU).

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is currently hiring SI Leaders to support BA 211, BA 213, BA 275, BI 20x, BI 22x, BI 23x, CH 12x, CH 23x, CH 33x, CS 162, ECON 201, ECON 202, MTH 111, MTH 112, MTH 241, MTH 251, MTH 252, MTH 254, PH 20X, and PH 21x.

Supplemental Instruction (SI) is a highly successful academic support program and an integral part of the Academic Success Center. SI offers group study tables for students enrolled in historically challenging classes. SI study tables emphasize collaborative, student-led learning over direct instruction through the design of interactive activities developed to check and build on student understanding and confidence with course content. All study tables are led by SI Leaders who have succeeded in the course and completed pedagogy training in order to design their own activities using research-supported practices. Successful SI leaders are learning facilitators, not teachers.

No experience in learning support is needed to apply. New SI leaders will receive significant training in spring 2024 in preparation to lead tables starting in fall 2025.

Continued employment is based on program funding; course support needs; and positive, professional performance.

Position Duties

Attend your SI-supported course, and synthesize relevant course content (~20%)
Develop a weekly, 50-minute plan for study tables based on current course topics (~20%)
Lead 5-7, 50-minute study tables per week, implementing best practices of collaborative learning (~40%)

Thoughtfully engage in weekly professional development meetings with other SI Leaders (~10%)
Complete additional project work as needed, including peer observations and debriefs, running exam reviews, and various other projects related to SI or the Academic Success Center
