I use my Learning Assistants to assist students who continue to struggle, the reassurance of a Learning Assistant who
3/24/2015 4:06 PM
has gone through my class is the best source of inspiration to those who struggle.

Yes. The new language under "Supervising Students," Item #4, "...student assistants cannot work on any days when
4/17/2015 4:21 PM
the campus is closed due to holidays or other campus closures," is problematic for off campus Fire Academy. Fire
academy students and instructors still have class on the Saturday before Labor Day and the Saturday of President's
Day Weekends. Fire LA's have always met on those days with the Academy, but according to this statement, they no
longer can. That is a negative impact on a critical training session. Also, the Fire Program uses several LA's across 19
courses. You may regret getting 57 forms so that an individual CRN can appear on each form.

The feedback on the current Learning Assistant request and application process, perhaps, a few questions that apply
3/24/2015 4:06 PM
to the job in particular, coupled with how students handle students who are older than they are, have learning
challenges or behavioral problems.

Biggest problem I have faced--not enough overlap between LA availability and when I need help.
