Engaging Students in Learning
Pamplin recognizes the value of its undergraduate students in supporting teaching, learning, and engagement inside and outside the classroom. In the Pamplin Engage Program, UTAs work alongside faculty to support instruction, discussion, and grading, offering more “hands on deck” through their mentorship and leadership. While other departments across campus have undergraduate graders, the Pamplin Engage Program is unique in its specialized training program and centralized management of UTAs among all Pamplin departments.
My UTA is AMAZING! I am a complete convert to this program, it's a game changer.
This program has allowed me to experiment with delivery and provide more student feedback generally, and more extensive feedback on the ‘big’ assignments.
The best thing about this position is talking to students and helping them understand a topic that they didn't before. It is great to build relationships with the professor and see what’s on the other end of a course!
