Graduate Assistant Teaching Mentor Program

Description

Louisiana State's Graduate Assistant Teaching Mentor Program allows a major professor to nominate a student whom s/he will supervise in the teaching of a course. Enrollment offers thirty spaces for graduate students. Although the graduate student designs the course and teaches it, the mentor offers commentary on the syllabus and examinations, and visits the class periodically. The Teaching Mentor Program has proven to enhance the teaching skills of participating Ph.D.s considerably.
