Accountability Groups are designed to help Auburn students strengthen peer connections, practice effective learning strategies, and dedicate meaningful time to academic work. These groups meet for 90 minutes, once per week for the academic semester, and are led by a peer educator who facilitates focused study time, body doubling, and skill-building in a supportive, non-remedial environment.

Accountability Groups are structured to make the most of your time:

• Check-in (10 minutes): Welcome and set a positive tone for the meeting.

• Set & Share Goals (10 minutes): Members share learning, homework, or other academic goals.

• Focus (60 minutes): Engage in independent study with accountability, while trying new strategies.

• Reflect (10 minutes): Celebrate accomplishments, review what went well, and navigate challenges together.

• Beginning with positive energy

• Consistency and engagement

• Respect for ground rules and group members

• Celebrating progress while addressing questions

Throughout the semester, members will grow interpersonal connections, learning strategies, and self-confidence related to:

• Academic goal-setting and follow-through

• Concentration and memory strategies

• Exam preparation

• Navigating the college environment

• Peer and social connections

• Study time and workload management
