The GATA Network presents two workshops this month on skills for graduate and undergraduate teaching assistants.

Tuesday, January 10, Jessie Beatty will facilitate “The First Day” at 9:30 a.m. Whether this is your first time or fifth time as a teaching assistant, you will learn strategies to engage students in the classroom, studio, and lab.

Tuesday, January 16, Sonia Sulaiman will lead “To Instruct and Delight: Storytelling for Higher Education” at 1:45 p.m. Storytelling builds a community of learners and creatively engages people across disciplines. This interactive workshop will give you practice in techniques for using storytelling as an intentional teaching method.

Both workshops are scheduled for room 2103, Lambton Tower, and neither has prerequisites. Registration is limited; sign up at http://cleo.uwindsor.ca/workshops/ctl/52/.
