At this time, the Directed Homework Sessions and Mock Tests are course-specific supports available on the Waterloo campus only.
The online Pre-Calculus or Pre-Statistics modules can be incorporated into relevant courses at either the Waterloo or Brantford campuses.
To get in the habit of doing your homework and to practice good learning strategies, come out to our weekly homework sessions (a modified form of Supplemental Instruction). A senior student will act as facilitator to provide structure to each 1.5-hour session, incorporating cumulative review, study techniques and time to work on current homework problems. It's a great way to keep up to date on course work – no cramming the night before your midterm!
There are no sessions currently planned for Spring term; instead, please refer to our drop-in help sessions. Homework sessions will return in Fall term.
In collaboration with the Department of Mathematics, the MaSt began offering weekly problems sessions for select second year courses in Fall 2020. Much like our Directed Homework Sessions for 100-level courses, these weekly sessions are intended to help keep you on track, keeping up with course material and ensuring you understand the concepts as they are taught.
A Ph.D. student will act as facilitator to provide structure to each 1 or 1.5-hour session, with the focus being to work through some of the current homework problems, as assigned by the course instructor and/or listed as suggested practice problems from the course text. This should then help you when completing your WeBWorK assignments and other graded components of your course.
There are no sessions currently planned for Spring term; rather please refer to our drop-in help sessions for support.
We will be implementing mock midterms and exams, as well as follow up review sessions, through our site on MyLearningSpace.
Please refer to the "Math & Stats Learning Support - Waterloo" page on MyLS. If you do not see the relevant MaSt support page in your list of courses on MyLS, use the Advanced Search link and then change the Semester option box to "None". If you still don't see the MaSt support page, then you can self-register for it: go back to your home page in MyLS and you should see a link for "Self Registration"; click this and then find "Math & Stats Learning Support - Waterloo" to enroll.
