MILE
The Mathematics Interactive Learning Environment (MILE) is a state-of-the-art computer lab that functions as an emporium classroom. In the MILEs, teaching and learning are extended to an environment where the benefits are from hands-on pedagogy and one-on-one assistance. This method of course delivery offers much more than what is typically available in a traditional classroom. Students work, individually, on assignments and have access to immediate help from instructors, departmental graduate students, and undergraduate assistants. The goal of the MILE staff is to facilitate students’ learning while, simultaneously, allowing them to move forward at their own pace.


The UL MILE (located at Urban Life Building 301) supports teaching and learning of Math 1111/0999 College Algebra and Support for College Algebra. During the breakout Math 1111/0999 sessions, students get hands-on practice for the topics covered in lectures, and they are welcome to ask the UL MILE learning assistants for help at any time. The UL MILE also serves students as the tutoring center for Math 1111/0999. Students are welcome to come to the Commons MILE during its opening hours to get one-on-one assistance from the UL MILE GLAs and SAs.

The MILEs are based on the Emporium Model, which has been successfully implemented at universities such as Virginia Tech, Louisiana State University, and University of Alabama. In the emporium model, students use computer-based learning resources, engage in active learning, work toward mastery of concepts, and receive help from their instructors and learning assistants when needed.
