Event Description

Please click “Register Now” to register for this event. This event will hosted online on Blackboard Collaborate. This workshop is also offered on July 27. 

Teaching Assistants (TAs) play important roles in building online learning communities. Although some of these roles have changed in online classrooms, effective working relationships between TAs and instructors are key for students to feel supported in their learning. This workshop is intended for faculty members and TAs who are thinking about how our interactions might change as we move our course(s) online. In this session, we will introduce key elements of the TA collective agreement (CUPE 2278), brainstorm strategies for addressing challenges in Faculty/TA relationships in online courses, develop communication plans among the teaching team, and enhance the teaching and learning experiences of our TAs (and of our students).

Facilitators:

• Lindsay Fraughton, TA Development Program Coordinator (CTLT)
• Bruce Moghtader, Scholarship of Teaching and Learning Facilitator (CTLT)
• Judy Chan, Faculty Associate / Faculty Liaison Land and Food Systems (CTLT)

Please ensure you have your own quiet space, a computer with a webcam and headphones or earbuds.
