This session offers some general information about the Americans with Disabilities Act, information and specifics about SLCC’s Disability Resource Center and the SLCC population.

In the session, the video “The 10 Commandments of Communicating with People with Disabilities”  http://icarusfilms.com/fanlight/ten.html, which is Closed Captioned as well as Audio Descriptored, is viewed.  

Students are then asked to interview 1 of 3 DRC Advisors and conduct an interview about Disability Services. More information will be given during the session about the assignment.

Workshop 6- Content Area Interview

Instructions for Content Area Assignment (LINK)

Tutor Certification Level 1

that you were hired to tutor.

1.  If you are a Student Writing Center tutor, your Student Writing Center training will suffice for this  assignment.  Have Clint Gardner sign and date your Tutor Certification Checklist for this assignment.
2. If you are/have been hired to tutor in two or more subject areas, you will need    only select instructors from one area.
3. Each interview should last at least 30 min.
4. You should send a copy of the suggested questions (page two of this document) to the instructor before your scheduled interview so they will have time to consider their answers and offer additional information.  These questions are suggestions and you should formulate one or two additional questions appropriate for your content area.
5. You should seek to discover what the instructor sees are the key issues when working with students from the classes they teach.  Ask for specific tips on how to explain difficult concepts.
6. When you have interviewed all three instructors, use your notes to compile a “how to” or “tip” sheet in a format that would be easily shared with other tutors.  Remember to cite the three instructors that you interviewed.

NOTE:     Spelling, grammar, and acceptable academic form and style will be expected in the production of your final work.  If you have any questions or concerns about constructing an acceptable paper, please schedule an appointment with a writing tutor in the Writing Center (AD218) or in the Learning Center at campuses other than Redwood Road.
