Teaching Assistant—Conservation Biology
Student must be available to attend lab from 1:30-4:30 PM on Wednesdays. The TA is expected to assist with lab set-up and clean-up; lead by example as engaged listeners and participants; and drive college vehicles. To be a TA, you need to be reliable, energetic, resourceful, responsible, excited about ES, and an excellent role model for students in the class.
You do not need to be van certified but you need to be willing to get certification, since lab courses go out in the field frequently. We will help you arrange for certification.
Additional requirements include:
· Lab set-up and clean-up each week
· Knowledge of how to use equipment used in labs
· Help faculty watch for any safety issues
· Maintain clear communication between faculty, the ES technician, and students
· Offer tutoring and group help sessions outside of lab
Hours: 3-5 hours per week, additional hours may be available to drive for weekend fieldtrips
