Using Supplemental Instruction in Organic Chemistry

The first part of the redesign applied to this courseis an early intervention exercise to give the students a sense of their level of mastery of important concepts from Chem 320A. A 25 question multiple choice exam was given during the second meeting of the class. Based on the results poorly performing students were asked to participate in the SI section attached to the course. This SI section is the other component of the course redesign.
