S3xE5: Teaching Support Staff with Kate O'Hanlon (Part 1)
Description
Teaching Associate, what's that? In this two-part series's first episode, we talk with Kate O'Hanlon, a teaching associate in the computer science department at Duke University. Teaching associates are department staff positions that support the large enrollment classes. We discuss the four primary teaching associate responsibilities: project manager, student outreach, developer, and instructor. In addition, we discuss the underlying goal when Duke created the position and the needed flexibility within the role.
This episode is part of a two-part series. The second episode will be with another teaching associate, Yesenia Velasco, to reflect on Duke's first attempt at such a position and some future thinking about where the position can go.
