Dear Derek,
I know that you set up this list with STEM disciplines in mind. For those
that are interested in a broader discussion of supporting TA's in their
various roles at universities across North America, I might suggest taking a
look at the Consortium of TA Developers list sponsored by the University of
Guelph and hosted by Trevor Holmes, Educational Development Associate at
Guelph's Teaching Support Service. This list was developed from
conversations on the STLHE and POD lists.
If you wish, you may subscribe by sending a message to
listerv(a)listserv.uoguelph.ca containing the following information:
SUB CTAD <full_name>
At times the discussion is lively, at times it is minimal. It is there for
people's needs; if you have a question or concern about TA and grad student
development, feel free to post! Answers usually come in pretty quickly....
All the best,
Eric
