. Addressing this area requires greater faculty engagement to clarify gradingresponsibilities and expectations, given the variability across the department. Future plansinclude creating recorded models of effective student-TA interactions, expanding our case studiesto cover diverse teaching scenarios, and curating a library of engineering problems with feedbackthat emphasize metacognitive strategies. We will continue to gather data about the trainingprogram to assess its impact on TA confidence, teaching effectiveness, and student learningoutcomes. This ongoing evaluation will help refine the training by identifying areas forimprovement and ensuring alignment with both TA needs and departmental expectations.References[1] S. B. Philipp, T. R.

The five-point attitude questionnaire,adapted from Hanrahan et al. [42]’s work, consists of seven items that explore students’self-efficacy and identity related to QC. The post-survey retains the knowledge test and attitudequestionnaire from the pre-survey and adds a seven-item engagement and usability questionnaire,adapted from Brooke [43]’s study (shown in Table 3).
