Mentoring TAs: Program for Instructional Excellence (PIE)

Program for Instructional Excellence (PIE) Associate Program

microscope The PIE Associate Program helps to improve teaching across campus by helping departments enhance their TA training programs and establish interdisciplinary connections and community among graduate students at FSU. A PIE Associate is an experienced graduate student teaching assistant (TA) nominated by his/her academic department and trained by the Program for Instructional Excellence (PIE). They serve as mentors for other TAs in the department and assist PIE with conferences and other events.

At the end of the spring semester PIE calls for interested departments with experienced TAs to apply for acceptance into the PIE Associate Program. Applications are reviewed by the APPS Center for Teaching and Learning faculty and a limited number of graduate student TAs are chosen for PIE associate positions.

PIE Associates serve for one year and earn a stipend of $2000 for his/her work. (Note: The stipend received for participating in this program does not reduce the amount received for a teaching assistantship.)
