Congratulations to the founders of the Learning Assistant Mentoring Program (LAMP)! LAMP matches first-time LAs with returning LAs who have past experience supporting specific courses, departments, and instructors. The first-ever LAMP mentor-mentee meeting occurred on January 24, 2019, during the LA Pedagogy Course.

Our Spring 2019 LAs created 11 analogies to explain the role of Learning Assistant to their students, and then voted on their favorites.

The most popular analogy was, "An LA is like a compass..."
