Undergraduate Paid Internship Opportunity

The Student Academic Center is hiring several students to be Teaching Interns, working in the PASS (Peer Assisted Study Session) Program. Specifically, next fall and spring we will be running PASS in all sections of MATH-D116 and some sections of MATH-M118 (but students from any section of M118 can attend any PASS session, regardless of whether the PASS tutor is attending their section).

PASS, as some of you know, is a peer-led team learning tutoring program in which enrolled students teach each other finite with the assistance of the PASS tutor. By permitting the students to do some of the teaching, the PASS program encourages higher order thinking and mastery of difficult concepts. The PASS tutor attends the finite class with the students, and organizes study sessions each week in the evenings.

This Teaching Internship is paid ($14 per hour) and will take seven hours per week in the fall. Applicants must have taken finite (M118) from IUB and earned a grade of B or better in the course. Applicants must have a 3.00 cumulative gpa or better. Applicants must be sophomore standing or higher. All majors from any school accepted.

Interested students will find the application here: https://sac.indiana.edu/student-employment/index.html . Questions may be directed to akoke@iu.edu.
