In addition to providing perspectives from students, LAs, and faculty, the article showcased a national panel sponsored by the Learning Assistant Alliance held in April 2020. Eight LAs from across the country came together for a discussion on "LA and Student Perspectives on Transitioning to Remote Learning." 75 faculty from across the country attended the event. An, as the LA panelist representing Montgomery College, spoke about her experience in supporting students while being mentored as a Learning Assistant in General Chemistry I this spring. An spoke with both pride and gratitude for her opportunity to serve as an LA. An highlighted MC's approach in implementing the Learning Assistant model as the college transitioned to remote learning; she discussed how she helped students in the class adjust to remote learning; she talked about the benefits and challenges of remote learning for students at a two-year college; she highlighted MC's initiative of financially supporting students with laptops; and she presented ideas on how to connect with and motivate struggling students as an LA. During MC's remote instruction period in Spring 2020, An and the other 36 LAs across the college supported approximately 900 students as they found creative ways to connect with and assist students attending their now-remote synchronous class sessions, moderating small group discussions in breakout rooms, leading Zoom study sessions, supporting students via a text-based app, and continuing their relationship with their LA faculty mentors as everyone developed new roles in the virtual learning environment. An did a great job at showcasing MC's LA program to the national audience. The LA program at MC opens up opportunities for students who are considering a career in a STEM field to try on teaching. Poised to begin its eighth year at Montgomery College, the LA program has been very successful as it provides an additional peer-led learning resource for students in LA-supported classes, leading to increased academic success, as well as providing a unique teaching and mentoring experience for Learning Assistants early in their academic journeys. <a href="http://www.montgomerycollege.edu/LAProgram">www.montgomerycollege.edu/LAProgram</a>2StudentVoices_LAPanel.jpgattach/0c3f651d-00e2-56a4-2da3-b5db570e3ca0/StudentVoices_LAPanel.jpgLAPanelistInAPSForum_Summer2020.pngattach/0c3f651d-00e2-56a4-2da3-b5db570e3ca0/LAPanelistInAPSForum_Summer2020.pngStudentVoices_LAPanel.jpgattach/0c3f651d-00e2-56a4-2da3-b5db570e3ca0/StudentVoices_LAPanel.jpgCollege News01 80000
