They may not officially be part of a profession, but it tells them that we expect them to be professional - and are happy to provide them with some of the tools to do that. Such as this book. Do you recommend that we publish an updated edition? Yes indeed. Please add any additional comments you feel may be helpful. I'm pleased to see Glenys updating this book. I have liked her books as being very practical, and recommend them to my students who are TAs. I've often said to them that I wish Glenys Fox had written more books.Jill Morgan, Senior Lecturer, University of Wales Trinity St David This book gives an excellent overview and foundation for what takes place in the classroom, with its focus on teachers and TAs working together.
