learningsupport center at our university. Together, these programs support around 120 courses across theuniversity. Most of these are freshman-level courses in areas of mathematics, accounting,chemistry, physics, and engineering. This makes our services one of the main academic supportresources for first-year students. With this population in mind, our vision for course support is toequip and encourage students to take ownership of their learning.To accomplish this goal, we provide students with a variety of services from drop-in tutoring, tocollaborative Peer-Assisted Learning sessions as well as MATHLab. We hire over 150undergraduate students to serve as peer leaders for our programs. These students have previouslytaken and been successful in the

students discussed the fact that their high schools didnot have information technology or computer-based classes in it, they did not know anyone whoworked in the field, and they had never tried programming before. In these cases, the studentsdiscovered the field of computer science by accident, typically by taking a class required for adifferent major. For example: Personally, I came to [university] to be an electrical engineer, because I'm really good at abstraction. I took Intro to Media Computation just for fun, and then I really liked it, but then I thought I couldn't get a job in computer science. I talked to my advisor, and she's like, ‘Yeah, there's actually like a field you can get a job in,’ and it blew my mind

Engineering Education, 2018 Short-format workshops build skills and confidence for researchers to work with data.AbstractTraining for data skills is more critical now than ever before. For many researchers in industryand academic environments, a lack of training in data management, munging, analysis andvisualization could lead to a lack of funding to support sustainable projects. Today’s researchersare often learning ‘as they go’ and need the flexibility of short, or self-paced learningexperiences. Research results in educational pedagogy, however, stress the importance of guidedinstruction and learner-instructor interaction, which contrasts the need for ‘just in time’ training.We’ve taken a distinctive approach to this
