publication, submitting grant proposals, participating in professional societies,and working on departmental and university committees.Teaching is considered the primary activity for faculty members and carries the highest weight(65%) toward the tenure decision. As a result a great deal of effort is channeled each year intoevery aspect related to teaching courses. Lectures are updated to improve class discussions andunderstanding; laboratory exercises are restructured to provide the right emphasis; homeworkassignments are refreshed; and projects are rejuvenated to increase the application of the subjectmatter. All of this effort is aimed at increasing the students’ comprehension of the material beingstudied. Regrettably this process creates a

These behaviors are discussed in more detail next.EffortA strong majority (73% overall, 79% of male students, 64% of female students) describedinstances during which their TA devoted noticeable effort, or lack of effort, to their teaching role.Many students said that when they could tell that their TA put effort into teaching a class,whether a recitation or a laboratory, they felt more motivated to reciprocate by also putting ineffort. Jonathan described this synergy between student and TAs: It helps to see a TA or professor caring about their subject, because it implies that they care that the students are trying to learn the subject, and that they are doing

The faculty member should be preparedto edit computer code on-the-fly. On a more positive note, the faculty member can also enlist thehelp of current graduate students, who are more experienced at solving the problems but need todevelop their teaching skills. As a final comment, the assigning of computational projects canpromote student-student interactions within a team environment.Within the laboratory there are more teaching opportunities readily available.
