Professional Development Course for Teaching Assistant (PDC-TA)

This course is essential for all new research postgraduate students who are appointed as graduate teaching assistants.  PDC-TA is a component of the University’s teaching and learning policy, and the ‘Integrated Framework for Curriculum Development and Review’ can be downloaded from the ‘Quality in Teaching and Learning’ page at http://www.cuhk.edu.hk/english/teaching/teaching-learning-quality.html . 

Graduate teaching assistants are required to perform teaching-related duties assigned by their home department, ranging from reading and grading assignments; running tutorial or lab sessions; invigilating tests or examinations; holding office hours to answer students’ questions; and managing courses through the learning management system. The course will let TAs learn on the strategies to perform the teaching duties in a more effective way.
