I've been reading through the organizing wiki, and most pages that reference T.A. training just say this:
Set up a teacher training. This often happens during the week of the workshop. If you can't get a
separate evening, you can do it during the Installfest, but try to get extra volunteers if you do that. Don't want to leave the student high and dry while teachers discuss best practices.

I'll add some stuff to it in a bit, but does anyone have specific suggestions for the T.A. training they'd like to add?
