Workshop

Teaching as a Graduate Student August 2024

TAGS is a hybrid learning experience. Participants will engage with the majority of the content in asynchronous online modules, followed by attending an interactive, 90-minute workshop. Our next interactive sessions are scheduled for Thursday, August 22, 2024 in Nau and Gibson Halls. We will offer both in-person and online sessions. During these 90-minute sessions, small groups of new TAs meet with an experienced facilitator to discuss the online material, ask questions, and plan effective approaches to common teaching scenarios. Multiple "sections" of the interactive session will be offered.

In the registration form, participants should register for either the morning or afternoon time slot and can indicate their availability for an in-person or online session. For those joining us in person, lunch will be provided.

The schedule is as follows:

  • 10:00-11:30 AM: Interactive sessions, time slot 1

  • 11:45 AM-12:45 PM: UVA Acts performance (in person only)

  • 12:45-1:15 PM: Lunch (in person only)

  • 1:30-3:00 PM: Interactive sessions, time slot 2

  • 1:30-3:00 PM: Center for American English Language and Culture session for international GTAs (in person only)

Participants in the live sessions should have previously completed the online modules, which they will be able to access beginning August 1. Please note that UVA login credentials are required to access the online material. The content remains available to everyone, regardless of their ability to attend the live sessions, but for full TAGS participation, we recommend both.
