STEMentors in Physics has been designed to provide timely support for students concurrently enrolled in PHYS 43, the STEM Peer Learning program offers STEMentor Sessions, weekly PHYSICS 50-minute sections designed to provide timely support, study strategies, and problem-solving skills applicable across STEM courses. Students will join a small cohort of other Physics PHYSICS 43 students looking to build community with and support other students in STEM. Weekly sections will focus on group activities and individual check-ins facilitated by a peer mentor (STEMentor) who has previously taken the Physics PHYSICS 43 course. These activities are designed to normalize challenging experiences within a college science course, build key study skills such as how to effectively review lecture notes and practice problems, prepare for and reflect on exams, and develop a consistent problem-solving process that will build student confidence over the quarter. Students should enroll in a weekly mentor section, occurring on Wednesdays.
