We did not include GTAs whoseprimary duties were grading and holding office hours but who were not in the classroom withstudents. These one-on-one semi-structured interviews were conducted roughly one semesterinto participants’ GTA experience. These interviews explore the techniques GTA’s use in theclassroom, their view of their role in the classroom and how it reflects their thinking aboutteaching, their own experiences as a student, and their experience participating in teachingrelated PD.

In recent years, several ports in the USA have adopted strategic plans toreduce emissions by installing electric outlets for hoteling vessels, starting from cruise lines andmoving to cargo vessels [1]. It is estimated about 25% of cruise ships’ emissions in Puget Soundcan be eliminated with shore power. However, the pier and the vessel must have shore powertechnologies to benefit from this initiative. The load can be somewhat predictable due to thepredetermined arrival and departure times of cruses and cargo vessels. The electrical energy forthe shore power comes from regional
