TA Program Coffee Hour: Building Community in the Classroom

January 25, 2024 at 3:00pm4:00pm EST

Lyman Hall, 312

This event has already occurred. The information may no longer be valid.

During the TA orientation, the Teaching Mentor staff covers a wide breadth of topics that Teaching Assistants will (and have) encountered in their classrooms and labs. To continue these conversations, the TA Program announces the return of the Teaching Assistant Coffee Hour, an informal and friendly space where TMs and TAs can dive deeper into many TA-relevant themes.

TAs will have an opportunity to share their experiences with peers and collaboratively workshop with a supportive group of teaching mentors and teaching assistants!

We hope you join us each month to meet peers from different disciplines across campus to share your experiences, listen and learn from others, and discuss new strategies to implement in your classes!  Light refreshments will be provided.

This coffee hour will be an opportunity to discuss how to develop community in your classroom. If you’re struggling to create a sense of community amongst your students, come workshop with fellow TAs and teaching mentors. We hope you will join us!

To RSVP, please email Shawn Loner at scloner@syr.edu.
