In this highly interactive workshop, GAs/TAs are encouraged to bring their questions they would like support in navigating when working with students. We will begin with discussing some of the “whys” of student challenges, and then based upon participants’ identification of student challenges, we will work together to develop the “hows” to understand and respond. By the end of this workshop, participants will leave with a tool-kit on supporting student success.
