Both instructors were present for 6 almost all lectures and each instructor delivered approximately 50% of the…

We describe our experiences in team-teaching an honors seminar on mathematics and literature. We focus particularly on two of the texts we read: Georges Perec's "How to Ask Your Boss for a Raise" and Alain Robbe-Grillet's "Jealousy," both of which make use of iterative structures.

I investigated my role as a mentor co-teaching with an intern in a Professional Development School (PDS) context through the use of self-study.
