Very helpful to first year TAs...

This is a very good collection of readings on assorted topics relevant to a graduate student who is teaching for the first time. While some of the suggestions may be impractical for a teaching assistantship, the pedagogical information is very valuable on the whole. Different essays discuss a variety of learning environments (lectures, discussions, studio, etc.) which makes it useful for TA training or a pedagogy course. Topics such as "Balancing Roles as Teacher, Student, and Person" can be very helpful for the over-burdened graduate student who wants to be conscientious about their teaching and their own research.
