GIS Teaching Fellows at Middlebury College

Inserito il 13/10/2012

Announcement for young scholars who would be good candidates for the new GIS Teaching Fellows Program that the Middlebury College Geography Department is launching in Fall 2013. I attach here our job advertisement.

Our search is unusual because it is not aimed at classically trained geographers. The purpose of the Program is for Fellows to develop new courses, based on their own research expertise, that will promote spatial learning across the curriculum. The Program offers strong support and training for Fellows. They will work closely with our lead GIS and cartography professor, Jeff Howarth, a leader in applying the pedagogical practices and theory of blended learning to GIS instruction.

The additional perk is that Fellows will be teaching excellent undergraduates, including majors in Geography, Environmental Studies, Architecture, Geology, History, and other disciplines. This is a great place to teach. And the Teaching Fellows Program allows scope for curricular innovation that is rarely encouraged in new faculty.

Please forward the job ad, and this email if you wish, to anyone you know who might be interested in applying or who has graduate students working with GIS in compelling ways.
