Pedagogy & Professional Development Wiki

Welcome to the GEU Pedagogy & Professional Development Wiki! The goal of this Wiki is to help Teaching Assistants in the MSU community share their best practices, collaborate across courses and departments, and hone their own practices. The site is organized in two ways: 1) by department and course and 2) by general professional development categories. While some of the links and resources on this site are created by the larger MSU community, the bulk of the content on this site has been created by your peers and hopefully you. Everyone has access to the site as a reader. If you would like to contribute to the content of the site, please email us at geuwiki@gmail.com for access and editor's rights.

How To Use This Site

• As a reader:
  • You can navigate the site using the links on the sidebar.
  • If you think that content is missing (either your department, course, major topic, etc.) email us and become an editor!
  • If you are new to using Wikis, don't be intimidated...editing a page is much like editing a Word document and any mistakes can be undone easily.
• As an editor:
  • Email us at geuwiki@msu.edu for access and editor's rights.
  • Contribute content where you think it fits best. Create new main pages or subpages where you think they are needed.
