Graduate Teaching Assistant (GTA) Training
Congratulations on your appointment as a Graduate Teaching Assistant at CWRU! It is a great opportunity to participate in promoting the growth and learning of your academic peers.
In order to do this successfully, you will need some fundamental proficiency in the application of relevant University policies, such as Academic Integrity, Title IX, and FERPA, to name a few. These policies form the foundation of the work that you will be doing, be it grading, holding office hours, or facilitating recitations - none of which happen in a vacuum. All of them involve people, who can reasonably expect fair and respectful treatment from their GTAs.
These are the steps that you need to complete by September 30, 2024 in order to be in compliance with University policy:
- Register for UNIV400 (Professional Development for Graduate Teaching Assistants) on the Student Information System (SIS). Once you have completed all the requirements, you will receive a notation to this effect on your academic transcript. Please note: UNIV400 will open for registration towards the end of July 2024.
- Complete the Canvas modules for UNIV400 (you can self-enroll here on or after August 1, 2024).
- Watch the asynchronous modules for UNIV400 (available on or after August 1, 2024), and respond to the quiz questions embedded in each module.
- International Students only: You will need to complete a 20-minute Spoken English Test (SET). This is separate from the TOEFL that you have already completed. To make an appointment for your SET, send an email to selp@case.edu.
If you have any questions about the process, please do not hesitate to reach out to us: gtatraining@case.edu.
