Job Details


Lecturer in Learning Sciences and Technology
Division of Teaching Learning and Leadership

The division of Teaching Learning and Leadership at The University of Pennsylvania's Graduate School of Education (GSE) seeks applicants for a lecturer position in the area of learning sciences and technologies.

The successful applicant would teach core courses primarily geared toward students in the Learning Sciences and Technology (LST) Master's degree program. These courses currently include the design of learning environments, foundations of teaching and learning, foundations of the learning sciences; and the master's research seminar. The applicant can also teach elective courses, as negotiated with the division faculty. This lecturer position also includes advising of master's students.

Competitive candidates for the position must have experience in graduate-level teaching and advising and have strong knowledge of the field of the learning sciences or related fields such as instructional design, STEM education, teaching and learning, and cognitive science. Expertise that compliments the expertise of existing LST faculty is preferred. Given Penn GSE's strong emphasis on diversity in its many forms, candidates from traditionally under-represented minority groups are particularly encouraged to apply.

This appointment will be for one academic year and can be renewed twice for a total of three years, contingent upon a satisfactory performance evaluation after each year. Candidate is expected to teach five courses each year and contribute to program administration.

We will begin reviewing applications on June 1, 2021, and will continue to consider new applications until the position is filled. We intend to fill the position prior to the upcoming academic year. Please submit through the online Interfolio system an application package that includes:

a) A letter expressing your interest and general qualifications;
b) Your current curriculum vitae;
c) Names and contact information for three references; and
d) Two Selected publications or other relevant manuscripts

Across our 12 highly-regarded schools, more than 25,000 students, and more than 4,000 faculty members, we become one university: a wide-ranging, ever-changing community that draws its strength from a multitude of races, ethnicities, genders, sexual orientations, historical traditions, ages, religions, disabilities, veteran status, interests, perspectives, and socioeconomic backgrounds. 

Penn carries on the principles and spirit of its founder, Benjamin Franklin: entrepreneurship, innovation, invention, outreach, and a pragmatic love of knowledge. Franklin's practical outlook has remained a driving force in the university's development. To learn more, visit About Penn. 

Vision

 

As engines of knowledge and new ideas, universities have the unique potential to define the future rather than be defined by it; to pioneer change rather than merely manage it. To do so requires a plan both visionary and pragmatic. The Penn Compact 2022 motivates community members to innovate, be radically inclusive, and positively impact their local, national, and global communities. 

 

Penn’s fundamental priorities — increasing access, integrating knowledge and engaging locally, nationally and globally — are supported by the three core values that make us uniquely Penn: inclusion, innovation, and impact. 

 

Learn about the signature initiatives of the Penn Compact 2022:  

 

Diversity 

 

Understanding and appreciating diversity is one of Penn's most important priorities and is fundamental to success in today's world. 

 

Penn adheres to a policy that prohibits discrimination on the basis of race, color, sex, sexual orientation, gender identity, religion, creed, national or ethnic origin, citizenship status, age, disability, veteran status, or any other legally protected class.
