PASS Basics
PASS Leaders should NOT do this during sessions.
What is re-teach content?
A student asks "What's the answer?". Your best response is this approach.
What is redirecting them to the process, not the answer.
This type of question helps students think beyond yes/no answers.
What is open-ended questioning?
Timesheet submission deadline.
What is every other Friday by 4:30 PM?
A professor asks you if a student has attended a PASS session. What do you do?
Do not share this information. PASS is anonymous so that students can seek help without fear of judgment or formal grading. Connect with your SI supervisor if the request persists.
PASS is most effective when students do this rather than just listen.
What is actively participate in discussions?
This strategy is used when students are dominating the conversation while others are quiet.
What is directing questions to others.
This approach is key in allowing learners to process the question and their response.
What is wait time?

What is PASS Schedule, Planning Sheets, Program Updates, Additional Resources?
A student asks for your phone number to schedule extra study sessions outside of PASS.
What is out of scope of the PASS Leader role? Redirect the student to book a 1-1 appointment with a tutor through the WC Online LSC portal.
This metric considers the PASS program a success.
What is 25% participation rate?
Two things to do whenno one attends your session,
What is 1) Remain for the entire session.
2) Submit an attendance form indicating no attendees
This happens when a facilitator resists answering and instead asks another guiding question.
