The renewed Biology 140 course requires a TA for the fall term.  This is an inquiry-based lab course for first year students. As a TA you would be required to teach two 2.5 hour labs per week and attend a 2 hour prep session Friday afternoons from 1 to 3 pm. During the term there will four written assignments you will need to mark.  At the end of term you will be required to invigilate a final exam, but you will not be required to mark it.  On average, you will work 12 hours per week, for a total of 192 hours per term.

If you are interested and available please contact Kathy Nomme nomme@zoology.ubc.ca as soon as possible. The first prep meeting is Friday Sept. 9th.
