Teaching Assistant Fundamentals
This free online course covers the fundamental ideas, practices and skills that a teaching assistant needs to know.
Overview
A teaching assistant (TA) assists the primary classroom educator, allowing the teacher to devote more time to classroom instruction. This course delves into the ideas and practices of becoming a teaching assistant. You will learn about professional advances, such as skills and essential processes. In addition, you will discover how to do fieldwork with diverse schools and gain important information about their educational policies. We answer questions like ‘what exactly is a performance evaluation?’ and ‘how can you prepare to teach on the first day of class?’.
We will then research equality, diversity and inclusion (DEI) in the classroom. Learn about assisting students with special needs and the law that protects them. Following that, you will understand the relevance of behaviour connections and how to evaluate behaviour screening outcomes. Finally, we will explore the theories about children's conduct and what drives them to act in specific ways, such as triggers or consequences. You will investigate the law that exists regarding special educational needs (SEN) and inclusion and discover how you can assist each learner in improving communication with parents and peers.
If you want to become a teaching assistant, this course will show you how to apply a TA's essential principles and developmental processes. We present specific ideas and procedures so you can use them confidently in your workplace. This course is perfect for introducing you to the vocation of a teaching assistant.
