=====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)??
