TA Orientation & TAPS 2022

The First Year Faculty Teaching Academy (FYFTA) is workshop series designed for faculty in their firstyears of teaching at UF. This workshop series is designed to help you create a great learning experience for your students and  save you time and frustration. While there is no single "best way" to teach, in this series of workshops you'll experience and discuss a variety of techniques.  We invite you to adapt and use the strategies that seem right for you.
