DRAFT AGENDA |
REGISTER by Friday, August 10 at the latest
The conference, an orientation to UD resources, policies, and best practices of learning and teaching, accommodates TAs across disciplines and with varied teaching responsibilities. We strongly recommend that department faculty highlight those sessions for the TAs that are most relevant to their instructional roles in the department. Concurrent sessions on instructional topics are facilitated by TA Fellows across disciplines. The TA Fellows bring considerable teaching experience and knowledge of the UD undergraduate students to their sessions, and they model various ways of effectively engaging students.
