CMSC395

Teaching Techniques for Computer Science

Restriction: Students must be hired as a teaching assistant in the Computer Science Department for the semester they are registered for the course; and permission of the Computer Science Department. This course will assure that teaching assistants become better skilled at applying effective teaching practices that improve the classroom environment while learning methods to implement mechanisms to improve diversity and inclusion. Legal and ethical aspects of the role will also be considered. Students in the class will be currently working as a teaching assistant and, therefore, be able to apply what they are learning immediately in their own context.
