DESCRIPTION:<span style="font-size:14px;">CHAIR: PATRICIA J. BROOKS<br />
<br />
Graduate students often serve as instructors of undergraduate psychology courses, yet few studies have examined their teaching attitudes in relation to their self-reported teaching practices. This symposium reports findings from two surveys distributed through the Graduate Student Teaching Association assessing approaches to teaching, model teaching characteristics, emphasis on workforce-relevant skills, and awareness of students&rsquo; academic motivations. Results indicate tensions between skills vs. content knowledge with many instructors failing to utilize high-impact practices (e.g., research).<br />
