Abstract	Efforts to train graduate student instructors (GSIs) at the University of California, Berkeley, are considered in this newsletter issue. Administrative changes and ways to improve GSI selection, training, and evaluation are considered, along with: proposed changes in graduate student teaching titles, grants to help faculty and departments undertake a variety of training activities; services of the newly-created Office of Educational Development; a campus-wide orientation conference; specialized departmental orientations; GSI handbooks; departmental and campus workshops to provide GSIs support and information; advice offered by faculty members on working with GSIs; methods for providing comprehensive training; special problems faced by GSIs who learned English as a second language; assuring consistency in grading; tips for faculty, departments, and GSIs; resources for foreign TAs to improve spoken English and assist in teaching American students; the goals, formats, and instructional methods of courses required for TAs; videotaping; faculty members who have received grants to improve teaching and learning; and a program to recognize outstanding contributions by GSIs.
