• The Media and Society Teaching Assistants Program enables outstanding Media and Society majors to work collaboratively with the faculty teaching MDSC courses. Each Teaching Assistant works closely with a single faculty member to support one MDSC course section. Teaching Assistants attend the class meetings for their assigned course; meet with students enrolled in their course to discuss the course material and assignments; meet with their faculty colleagues to discuss strategies for supporting student learning; and meet with all MDSC faculty and Teaching Assistants each month in the Media and Society Teaching Colloquium – a forum for exchanging ideas about media studies pedagogy and supporting teaching and learning across the MDSC curriculum. Teaching Assistants also have some opportunities to lead or moderate class discussions; design and facilitate class activities; provide feedback about student learning and course design to the professor; and produce a reflective essay (in written, video, or other formats) about their teaching and learning experiences.
