Episode #4: Empowering Teaching Assistants to Deliver Better Student Feedback
In this episode of Crowdmark Sessions, the host and CEO of Crowdmark, Michelle Caers, interviews Lydia Chen, Assistant Professor of Chemistry & Chemical Biology from McMaster University. We’ll explore how Lydia’s teaching philosophy guides her in today’s digital-first classrooms, how tools like Crowdmark support collaborative grading, and why realistic, structured teaching assistant training could be the missing link in scalable, high-quality feedback for students.
