ACEtutoring, located in the lower level of the West Dining Center, offers free support for NDSU students in a variety of courses and subjects. Students can seek help either in-person at the ACE center or join a tutor online.
Each week, students spend time in a large lecture where material is reviewed and they turn in material from guided notebooks. They also spend two hours in the computer lab working on their notebooks, quizzes and homework. When they have demonstrated partial mastery of the subject, they take exams in the computer lab.
The Math Emporium lab allows students to progress past topics that they already understand and, instead, focus their effort on subjects for which they might need better understanding, said Mohamed Baghzali, senior lecturer of mathematics and Math Emporium coordinator. The lab is open for 49 hours weekly and staffed with seven graduate and four undergraduate teaching assistants.
During one-on-one and group consultations in a friendly environment or sessions via Zoom, peer tutors answer questions, provide feedback and guide students to a clearer understanding of writing assignments and instructor expectations. The center also provides writing courses, workshops, grant-writing guidance, services for distance students and resources for writers and writing instructors.
