Attendance to the SLA session is mandatory for all students throughout the duration of the term. Students must attend each SLA session and participate in the activities organized by the instructor and the SLA tutor. Surveys of former SLA students found that the SLA sessions provided students with confidence in mathematics and study skills that may be implemented in future classes. Students who do not regularly attend and participate in the SLA session may not pass this portion of the course. Punctuality may be a factor that affects both attendance and SLA participation. The SLA session will represent your grade. (% or points) of/towards
