2024 Autumn TA Training

Compared to 2023 Autumn and 2024 Spring, the 2024 Autumn training adopted a more relaxed "lunch-meeting" format (reserving a meeting room in the department building, with easy-going discussion around a theme). This format was reused in later semesters. Many sessions reuse previous materials, but updated with the current semester's discussion questions.
