Teaching

Workshops
CTE sponsors over 12 workshops and conversations each year. They cover a variety of topics of interest to all faculty and teaching assistants.

Undergraduate Teaching Assistant Programs
The Center for Teaching Excellence now supports several different Undergraduate Teaching Assistant opportunities:

UTA -- The standard Undergraduate Teaching Assistant Program, in which students work with an individual faculty member and provide various services while they learn about teaching;

UTA-SL -- The Undergraduate Service Learning Teaching Assistant Program, a component of the UTA Program that focuses on the combination of community service with academic coursework; and

UTA-UNIV -- The Undergraduate UNIV100/UNIV101 Program, in which students work with a faculty member of either UNIV 100 or UNIV 101, two first-year student seminars designed to help new students transition into the University community, as co-partners in the teaching process.
