Visit this amazing AVID duo on 10/13 and 10/15 during 2nd period in Rooms 112 and 118. They will engage students in AVID tutorials. You will want to avoid the last 15 minutes of the class period.
During tutorials, the AVID elective class is divided into several tutorial groups. Under the direction and supervision of the AVID elective teacher, an AVID-trained tutor facilitates the discussion and work at each group.
What is the purpose of tutorials?
* Create deeper understanding of concepts covered in core content class
* Develop skills necessary to become self-directed learners.
* It's not just homework help.
What are the goals of the tutorial process?
* To push each other's thinking. AVID tutorials use an inquiry process.
* Tutors do not give the answers. They facilitate the groups' learning process.
* Tutors don't teach the answers. They ask more questions. This is called the Socratic method.
