Topics for the Semester
Roughly in my perceived order of importance
- Worksheets
- Good Boardwork
- Encouraging student participation
- Leading review sessions
- Dealing with quiet students/obnoxious students
- Effective Demo presentation
- Writing quizzes, exam questions, homeworks (all are roughly the same level of difficulty)
- Mid-term evaluations
- Think-Pair-Share and other interactive techniques for lecture
- Teaching for advanced classes (more advanced students)
- Having AY 10 profs visit and share their teaching philosophies
Projects
- Exp GSI visit (if possible)
- Design-a-demo
- Video-taping
- Lecture visitation for opposite prof
- Write/heavily modify a worksheet and contribute to the wiki
- Write a quiz (make non-Alex GSIs do this as well for the experience)
- Evaluate a teaching technique/curriculum (e.g., Modeling Discourse Mgmt)??
