each year the 2022年世界杯中国小组赛积分 (cft) hires a number of graduate students as part of its efforts to mentor and train graduate students, including those serving as teaching assistants or instructors of record here at vanderbilt as well as those interested in developing teaching skills for future faculty careers. the cft has several types of positions available for graduate students for the 2015-2016 academic year.

wider fellows – funded by an nsf wider grant, these graduate students support the planning, implementation, and assessment of “an introduction to evidence-based undergraduate stem teaching,” an open, online course designed for stem graduate students and post-docs planning faculty careers. graduate students with interests in stem teaching and online teaching are encouraged to apply. the wider fellow is a 10-month position carrying a $20,000 stipend and graduate student health insurance.

teaching affiliates – the primary responsibility for teaching affiliates is to lead a cohort of incoming tas through a day-long workshop at august’s ta orientation. these workshops familiarize new tas with the challenges and opportunities of working at tas at vanderbilt and help prepare tas for the first few weeks of class. cohorts are divided by discipline, and so the cft seeks teaching affiliates from a wide variety of disciplines on campus. the teaching affiliate position is an 80-hour position, with most of those hours occurring in august 2015, carrying a $1,000 stipend.

these positions are great opportunities for graduate students to refine their teaching and presentation skills and network with graduate students outside of their department or program.

applications for all four types of positions are due by
4pm on monday, february 16, 2015 .
