The intern would have the opportunity to be involved in one of the following projects to support students’ educational goals (depending on time of year and student interest):
- Academic Coaching Program Recruitment
- The current academic coaching program is still new to the Rutgers Learning Center – Newark. The focus of this project would be to develop and execute new, creative ways of introducing this service to students. It would be expected that the intern would measure the outcomes of each mechanism they develop. The intern would need to work collaboratively with RLC staff and other constituents on campus.
- Workshop(s)
- The Rutgers Learning Center-Newark hosts a workshop series that is open to all students, but is mostly attended by students on academic probation. The intern would have the opportunity to create and present at least one workshop that supports students’ educational goals. The topic(s) could range from a specific academic skill to a holistic overview.
- Programming to support students’ educational goals
- The current means of supporting students’ educational goals at the RLC are tutoring, academic coaching, and workshops. If the intern has a different programming idea as a means to support students’ educational goals they would have the option to develop it. The expectation would be that they create a program with a specific, measurable goal.
- Developmental Math Institute (Spring project)
- There exists a population at Rutgers University – Newark that needs additional support to succeed in the developmental math courses offered. This program would exist to offer such support in a compassionate, engaged, and effective manner to students. The expectation would be that the outcomes are specific and measurable.
