Tiffany Elliott, academic support programs coordinator for the LLCC Center for Academic Success hosted an online discussion of embedded tutoring Tuesday, May 23, to share information about best practices in designing, implementing and assessing embedded tutoring programs. Learning center professionals and administrators from 58 colleges and universities in the United States and Canada participated. Julie Clevenger, executive director of the Center for Academic Success, and Dr. Colin Suchland, professor of sociology, shared insights into the successes of embedded support at LLCC. Continued discussion and collaboration among participants in this event will take place over the summer to enhance awareness of the value and effectiveness of embedded tutoring and to provide space for learning center professionals and administrators to share their knowledge and experience, so we can all continue to enhance our support of students’ academic success.

If you are a faculty member interested in having embedded support in a course you teach or would like more information on how this program can benefit your students, please contact Julie Clevenger or Tiffany Elliott.
