Becoming Successful as an International Teaching Assistant.

Smith, Kathleen S.; Simpson, Ronald D.

Review of Higher Education, v16 n4 p483-97 Sum 1993

A multicase study investigated the process by which international teaching assistants become successful undergraduate instructors. It was found that one key to that process is their ability to continually redefine personal goals to make them increasingly compatible with department-imposed conditions. (Author/MSE)
