To foster better communication with undergraduates, graduate students meet weekly with the College students working in the course for informal discussion.
Last week, for example, students were asked to read an article about the intensity of the American college process. The exercise provided students the basic tools to engage in conversation both inside and outside the classroom, according to Pollock.
She describes one teaching fellow for Social Analysis 10—the popular introductory economics course commonly known as Ec 10—who received subpar CUE guide scores and complaints about his language skills from students in his section.
When Maurer began working with the individual, she reviewed a film of one of his classes and found that language was not the problem—the TF was teaching at a level too high for the students, she says.
