An Assessment of the TA Web Certification Program: Four Years of Supporting the Use of Instructional TechnologyWednesday, March 26, 2003 Bradley A. Cohen, Assistant Director and Coordinator for Curriculum Development, University of Minnesota William Rozaitis, Senior Instructional Multimedia Consultant, University of Minnesota JD Walker, Manager, Research and Evaluation Services, University of Minnesota The TA Web Certification Program at the University of Minnesota trains graduate students to develop pedagogically sound Web-based learning materials. They then partner with faculty to implement these materials. Our presentation outlines the history of the program, its curriculum, and its long-term outcomes based on an evaluation of the program's first four years (http://dmc.umn.edu/ta-web.shtml).
