What types of learning and teaching activities are encouraged during RRR week?
UPDATED The first “R” in “RRR week” stands for “reading.” The new RRR week is intended to give students time to synthesize and review course material on their own or in small groups and to finish final projects and papers before finals begin, with instructors available for consultation. A number of universities have such “reading periods” between the end of classes and final exams. In addition, other learning and teaching activities may include but are not limited to the following: review sessions, study group meetings, and in some situations, oral presentations and poster sessions. Activities may include both face-to-face and electronic modes of contact and communication. Activities should be optional, except in several special cases noted below.
