The Community College Teaching Fellowship was an extraordinary opportunity to teach as the instructor of record, and to experience a classroom environment with a diverse student body outside of the Princeton community... It was unquestionably one of the most rewarding experiences from my graduate career. Working under a mentor at the college and designing every aspect of the course, from the textbook to the final assignment, gave me pedagogical insights I would never have had just from working as an AI.
