Supplementary Workshops

Cal Poly's Supplemental Workshops (SW) Program develops academic enrichment environments of active learners who ascend the levels of Bloom's Taxonomy.

Guided by trained peer facilitators, enrolled students participate in discussions, compare notes, develop study strategies and challenge their understanding with practice exams, worksheets and more. Workshops meet twice a week and earn one unit of academic credit.

These workshops, offered in both science and math, guide students to master concepts and promote collaborative learning, including concept enhancement, and problem-solving.
