Graduate students learn how to teach a course and mentor undergraduate and graduate students in the College's outreach course (OPTI 489/589). Up to two students learn how to design lectures, lead lectures, develop assignments, lead class demonstrations, and work with course instructor technology (e.g., D2L), and how to assess their instruction and course learning outcomes. The students meet with the OPTI x89 instructors weekly to talk about the previous lecture, the upcoming lecture, and the logistics and administration of the outreach course. This course provides the opportunity for interested students to learn more about effective teaching methods, determine if they like teaching at the college level, how to prepare lectures, and how to assess course instruction.
