Weekly Preparation in Small, Medium, and Large LA-Supported Courses

LA Programs at different institutions can support large classes, small classes or a combination of small and large classes.

Large LA supported classes might have twenty LAs who assist instructors in the multiple sections of the General Chemistry course and work with a single coordinator, rather than the individual faculty for the course. [See example video from CU Chemistry].

Midsized LA supported classes might have a single faculty member with four or five LAs [See example video from CU Biology].

Small LA supported classes may have a single faculty member working with a single LA or even two faculty members with a single LA [see example video from CSU Physics].
