Assistant/Associate Professor of Curriculum and Instruction/Teacher Education (tenure-track) Search # 67913
College of Education, Elementary and Special Education (ESE) or Middle Grades and Secondary Education (MGSE)
The Department of ESE/MGSE in the College of Education invites applications and nominations for the tenure track position of Assistant/Associate Professor of Curriculum and Instruction/Teacher Education. The home campus for this position will be our Armstrong campus in Savannah, GA. Some travel to our Statesboro or Liberty campuses may be required.
Founded in 1906, Georgia Southern University is a Carnegie Doctoral/R2 institution with a focus on public-impact research, serving about 27,000 students on three beautiful campuses in Statesboro, Savannah, and Hinesville, and via a growing online program. Through our degree offerings at the associate's, bachelor's, master's and doctoral levels, Georgia Southern offers a distinctive combination of community collaboration, world-class scholarship, innovative teaching, and hands-on learning opportunities.
To equitably serve a fast growing and highly diverse student body and to fulfill the University's commitment to promoting diversity, equity, and inclusion, we actively seek candidates with a demonstrated commitment to Inclusive Excellence. Candidates whose work furthers the institution's goals and who bring to campus varied life experiences, perspectives, and backgrounds are especially encouraged to apply.
Within this setting, the College of Education prepares future teachers, school psychologists, counselors, school library media specialists, instructional technologists, researchers, and leaders through intensive field experiences, cutting-edge technology and research-based instruction on three campuses and online (see About COE). With more than 100 faculty members who are experts in the field, students learn in an environment exemplified by a free exchange of ideas, high academic expectations, and individual responsibility for academic achievement. The Departments of Elementary and Special Education and Middle Grades and Secondary Education are committed to preparing reflective educators who work collaboratively and effectively with diverse students in public schools by using current research to inform their educational practices.
Position Description. Reporting to the Chair of the Department of Elementary and Special Education or Middle Grades and Secondary Education, as appropriate, the Assistant/Associate Professor of Curriculum and Instruction/Teacher Education position primarily focuses upon teaching advanced pedagogical courses to preservice and in-service teachers in our teacher education programs, including BSED, M.Ed., MAT, and Ed.S. and supervising teacher candidates in traditional as well as fully online practicum and internship settings. The teaching requires the modeling of effective instructional practices for diverse student populations and the use of instructional technology in face-to-face, hybrid, and online learning environments.
Some supervision responsibilities will require in-person observation of undergraduate teacher candidates in local K-5 public school classrooms. Other supervision responsibilities will be fully-online observations of graduate-level in-service teachers. Scholarly responsibilities include maintaining an active research agenda yielding regular publications, professional presentations, and/or external grant proposals. In addition, the position involves collaborating with faculty across the College of Education, and performing service to the department, college, university, regional schools, and professional community. Our department supports faculty efforts to integrate teaching, scholarship, and service through multi-faceted initiatives. Finally, the position can provide multiple opportunities to serve as a member and/or chair of doctoral and educational specialist committees. The position is 10-month, tenure-track appointment, and the salary is competitive and commensurate with qualifications and experience. The successful candidate may negotiate their home unit (either ESE or MGSE) based on their area of expertise.
