Nature and Purpose:
This part-time position for the academic year 2012/2013 offers the

tested
for its effectiveness. The main function of the Meeting Facilitator will be
similar to that of a teaching assistant.

(i.e. the two computer-assisted decision support systems). Attend training
sessions.

meeting participants. Wrap-up the meeting and encourage completion of the
post-meeting surveys.
