Collaboration
About the role
- Our LA program is based on the understanding that learning requires students to articulate and defend their ideas.
- Thus, LA supported courses provide regular opportunities for students to engage with each other in small groups using challenging curricular materials that help students to get closer to a scientific/mathematical understanding.
- An LA's primary role is to facilitate these collaborative environments by listening, observing, engaging students in questioning, helping students articulate their ideas and justify their reasoning to themselves and other students.
Requirements
- LAs attend all classes as required by their supervising professor (1-3 hr) and facilitate collaboration among students by formatively assessing student understanding and asking guiding questions.
- Offer guided help sessions if required by the professor.
Benefits
- LAs attend a special mathematics and science education seminar (NTSC 200 for 1SH) where they reflect on their own teaching and learning and make connections to relevant education literature.
- This course meets Engaged Learning (EL) and Learning Community (LCOM) designations.
