| 9 | | ''All second- and third-year students are normally expected to teach one |
| 10 | | section of the Laboratory C1903/1904 which meets for three-hour sessions |
| 11 | | one night a week for the eleven middle weeks of the semester. They are |
| 12 | | responsible in this capacity for designing a syllabus for the lab, conducting |
| 13 | | all lab sessions, supervising their assigned assistant TA, and providing |
| 14 | | evaluations of all student work, as well as a recommended final grade for |
| 15 | | each student. They are also expected to attend TA meetings and to |
| 16 | | participate in the collective activity of developing new laboratory exercises. |
| 17 | | They are required to distribute the Department’s teaching evaluation forms |
| 18 | | each term, and to arrange for their collection and return to the office by a |
| 19 | | student in the class. (For grading responsibilities, see below.) |
| 20 | | On occasion, there may be a need for a TA to discharge his/her teaching |
| 21 | | responsibilities in another undergraduate class. In these cases, the exact |
| 22 | | tasks may differ, but the weekly expectation of 10-12 hours per week will |
| 23 | | be the same.'' |
