AVID Tutorial Process and Reflection

The AVID tutorial process is a structured method to support students' academic success by enhancing skills like critical thinking and collaboration. It is divided into three phases: before, during, and after the tutorial. Before the tutorial, students identify a point of confusion and prepare using the TRF.
