Undergraduate Course Assistant - Numerical Methods
Undergraduate course, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign, Computer Science, 2021
This was my first experience working as a staff for any course. I worked two years in total as a CA, during which I was nominated to receive the Outstanding Course Assistant Award. My main duties were:
- Hold regular office hours
- Attend weekly synchronous group activity sessions
- Develop and test quiz questions
- Improve existing autograders for course assessments to provide better feedback
- Improve quality for course notes
- Proctor synchronous quizzes over Zoom
The two years working as a staff also guided me towards Computing Education Research, as I gained my first experience of research during that time.
