?IntroductionGraduate student instructors (GSIs) are not only essential to the instructional team at manyresearch institutions, but their teaching appointments are often the only teaching experiencesthey have prior to becoming faculty. Moreover, GSIs have been found to play an important rolein improving student retention and inclusion in science, technology, engineering and math fields(STEM) [1]. Undergraduate instructional aids (IAs) have also been found to benefit studentlearning [2, 3, 4], and their training is fundamental to that success [4, 5]. As a result, calls havebeen made to develop and improve the professional development of student instructors [4, 6].Trainings at different institutions range from two-hour departmental orientations with no
