From this dataset, we are able to analyze whether factors such as varying experiencelevels and TA roles (such as discussion mediation versus laboratory instruction) affect differentcomponents of their students’ grades. When analyzing our dataset we sought to answer three basic questions: First, do TAs producestatistically significant differences in the grades of their students when compared to other TAs inthe same course? Second, if there are differences, what components of the assessment processare affected? Finally, is there a correlation between the amount of previous teaching experiencea TA has and the grade outcomes of that TA’s students? We

Indeed, the text used by the Departmentof Biology (Campbell et al.1) includes a relatively large amount of cell biology. However, many ofout students have much more extensive familiarity with biology, including laboratory experience.Thus many students find the “basics” (material suitable regardless of the student's background) tobe too basic. At the same time, other students enter the course strictly with the backgroundprovided by introductory biology, and need this background information.One must also consider what is meant by teaching
