Abstract for the conference program
A biology graduate teaching course was developed at Georgia College in order to improve undergraduate science laboratories which are primarily taught by graduate students. Course activities focus on active learning pedagogies, effective lecture techniques, and test writing skills. Assessment data from the course has shown that graduate students develop their teaching skills and gain confidence in the classroom.
