CIDR’s New Website for Departments: Conducting Observations for Teaching Assistants who are Non-Native Speakers of English -Wondering how to go about observing your international TAs teaching their classes? -Need ideas about how to make the observation process as productive as possible? -Concerned about how to support your TAs who are non-native speakers of English? Graduate School Memo 14 mandates that all new TAs be observed in each of their first two quarters of teaching – and many departments have questions about how to do this. In response, CIDR staff have developed a website and accompanying materials for those individuals (faculty, staff, and/or lead TAs) who will be observing TAs – in particular those TAs who are non-native speakers of English. To visit the website: For questions, contact: ita@cidr.washington.edu
