Opportunity for UMaine Student Employment as Maine Learning Assistant for Fall 2019
The Maine Center for Research in STEM Education (the RiSE Center) is currently accepting applications for undergraduate student employment as Maine Learning Assistants (MLAs) in the Faculty Course Modification Incentive Grant – Maine Learning Assistant (FIG-MLA) Program for Fall 2019.
MLAs serve as peer instructors, facilitating group work and assisting faculty as they transform their course to incorporate more interactive-engagement and student-centered instruction. MLAs learn to use innovative, research-based instructional strategies, develop relevant pedagogical skills, deepen their content understanding, and have the opportunity to explore their interest in teaching, while participating in a vibrant community of peers and faculty.
Review of applications for the Fall 2019 program will begin on Wednesday April 10. For more information, click HERE. There will also be an Open House Event and Information Session on April 4th.
