Please note that given the resumption of most in-person teaching activities in the Fall, Teaching Assistants will be required on campus to perform their tasks in person.  Should government restrictions prohibit the resumption of in-person teaching activities, courses will revert to remote teaching. In the event of such a change, Teaching Assistants will be advised as soon as possible.  Teaching Assistants may be required to perform tasks suited to a remote/online teaching environment using a virtual learning platform [e.g., Zoom, WebEx] and the McGill myCourses learning management system.

Veuillez noter qu’en raison de la reprise de la plupart des activités d’enseignement en personne, la présence des auxiliaires d’enseignements sera requise sur le campus pour exercer leurs tâches.  Si les restrictions gouvernementales interdisent la reprise de l’enseignement en personne, les cours reviendront à l’enseignement à distance. Dans l’éventualité d’un tel changement, les auxiliaires d’enseignements seront informés sans délai. Les auxiliaires d’enseignements peuvent être appelés à préparer et à présenter du matériel didactique adapté à un environnement d’enseignement à distance/en ligne en utilisant une plateforme d’apprentissage virtuelle (p. ex., Zoom, WebEx) et myCourses, le système de gestion de l’apprentissage de McGill.
