Educational Development Associates

EDA General Email: TA&GradCTL@queensu.ca

The Educational Development Associates (EDA) program is an internship-like opportunity for graduate students with an interest in teaching and learning. Each year the Centre hires up to three graduate students to work closely with an Educational Developer to design and deliver programming to support TAs', graduate students' and post-doctoral fellows' ongoing professional development as educators. If you're interested in the possibility of work as an EDA, look for announcements each May for upcoming opportunities.

Contact the current EDAs at TA&GradCTL@queensu.ca if you would like any additional information about CTL programming for graduate students.

What Kind of Support do EDAs Provide?

The EDA team can support graduate students, Teaching Assistants and Teaching Fellows in the following ways:

  • Individual or group consultations about syllabus design, teaching dossiers, instructional strategies  
  • Classroom teaching observations (both virtual and in-person)
  • Discuss ideas and strategies for active learning in your lectures, tutorials, or labs
