Abstract | San Diego State University recently embarked on a major initiative to revitalize the Precalculus, Calculus 1, and Calculus 2 sequences. In addition to program features such as course coordination, a new active learning component led by graduate teaching assistants (GTAs) was added to each of the Precalculus, Calculus 1, and Calculus 2 courses, and a professional development (PD) program was instituted to support GTAs. There were many challenges related to workload, contracts, communication, and GTA buy-in. Here we present the evolution of the GTA-PD program through the discussion of successes, challenges, and responses to those challenges. We conclude with some of the overall lessons learned thus far, and how we are continuing to evolve. (As Provided). |
