Teaching as a Graduate Student

Register for Teaching as a Graduate Student (TAGS), the CTE’s orientation for new graduate teaching assistants. TAGS aims to provide an overview of equitable and learning-centered teaching and strategies for applying these ideas in contexts most applicable to GTAs.

TAGS is a two-part, hybrid learning experience. Participants will engage with the majority of the content in asynchronous online modules, followed by attending an interactive, 90-minute Zoom workshop on Thursday, January 9. When registering, participants can choose their preferred session time between two time slots: 10:30 AM-12:00 PM and 1:00-2:30 PM. During these 90-minute sessions, small groups of new GTAs meet with an experienced facilitator to discuss the online material, ask questions, and plan effective approaches to common teaching scenarios.

By registering, GTAs will sign up for a live session and receive access to the online material in early December. Participants in the live sessions should have previously completed the online modules. Please note that the online content remains available to everyone, regardless of their ability to attend the live sessions, but for full TAGS participation, we recommend both.
