The LA Model from the Instructor and LA Perspectives


Katie’s Recommendation

Listening to this podcast interview is a great way to be introduced to Learning Assistants! Host Derek Bruff invited me to share about the LA program I founded, and we also feature a student who worked as an LA over several years. It is a wonderful chance to hear the LA's perspective on what the program does for students.

Derek Bruff: I talked with Katie (Johnson) and with Katarya Johnson-Williams, a senior in software engineering with a minor in marketing at Florida Gulf Coast University. We talked about the Learning Assistants model, the impact this kind of program can have on faculty and students, and advice for instructors who are interested in starting up an LA program in their department or on their campus.
