Duties may include serving as peer tutors, teaching assistants, or laboratory assistants, and developing and/or evaluating course activities and materials. Students participating in this course will develop a deeper understanding of the focus course material by actively helping teach the material. The course is only available to students who are invited to serve as teaching assistants for a Wildlife and Fisheries Science course and enrollment is by permission of the instructor.
