About 80 Teaching Assistants from the Faculty of Science as well as the Schools of Computing and Medicine attended the TA training programme on 28-29 February. This year's programme covered topics such as effective methods of motivating students, how to assess student learning as well as teaching and learning in small groups. The TAs also gave poster presentations and participated in micro-teaching sessions which gave them the opportunity to hone their presentation skills and get feedback from their peers.
