Event Navigation
AVID鈥檚 proven learning support structure for higher education is known as WICOR (Writing, Inquiry, Collaboration, Organization, Reading). It provides a learning model that faculty can use to guide students to comprehend materials and concepts, and articulate ideas, at increasingly complex levels (scaffolding) within developmental, general education and discipline-based courses.
As part of our participation in the Dell Foundation research grant for AVID for Higher Education, there will be 聽a professional development opportunity for faculty to learn how to use WICOR strategies in their classrooms.
