Program summary
The Teaching Assistant Fellows (TA Fellows) program for outstanding USC TAs is a two-fold program which:
- Primarily produces TA training materials used to enhance TA instruction across the university. TA Fellows work collaboratively combining their personal teaching expertise with research on best practices to create cutting-edge materials to be used by teaching assistants.
- Secondarily the TA Fellows program provides professional development for the TA Fellows through monthly workshops.
TA Fellows receive advanced training in the modern theory and practice of pedagogy from CET Fellows and other experts at USC.
