    Description

    Job Summary:

    As an academic unit within the Faculty of Education, Community, and Human Development, our Department of Adult Education offers a range of undergraduate credentials, including a Bachelor of Arts in Adult Education, a minor in Adult Education, Associate certificates in Workplace Education (WE) and Integrated Learning Design (ILD), and a certificate in Teaching English as a Second Language (leading to TESL Canada Standard 2).

    The Department invites applications for a permanent, full-time, tenure-track faculty position at the rank of assistant professor in the area of adult education. The successful candidate will be expected to teach a range of adult education courses that might include curriculum design; instructional design; assessment; PLAR; workplace learning; TVET; and well-being and mindfulness. The successful applicant will have a demonstrated excellence in teaching both in the field and in undergraduate or graduate teaching contexts and possess strong communication, leadership, and administrative skills. The successful applicant is expected to incorporate or reflect Indigenous perspectives or ways of teaching and learning into their curriculum.

    We are seeking a collegial, energetic, and innovative individual who communicates effectively with students both in and out of the classroom; is able to instruct across a range of the undergraduate courses offered by the department; and can develop new and innovative existing courses. Demonstrable experience in high-impact, technology-supported teaching (e.g., hybrid, on-line, experiential, e-learning) is required. Furthermore, experience and interest in developing or extending experiential learning opportunities, including practicum experiences; internships, study abroad and co-curricular activities is highly desirable. The successful candidate will show aptitude for working in team situations; an interest in innovative inter-disciplinary teaching.

    Applicants will have a record of research productivity commensurate with their experience and an ability to incorporate their research into applied learning opportunities for students, particularly in the scholarship of teaching and learning, given our focus as a teaching-intensive university. Research and teaching specialization in at least one, and preferably several, of the following areas is required: curriculum, assessment, learning sciences, TVET, disability studies, health, Indigenization and DEDI, and SEL/mindfulness. We are particularly interested in candidates with experience in practice- and/or community-oriented research with a demonstrated commitment to evidence-based practice.

    The successful applicant will be expected to actively participate in departmental activities, service, events, and initiatives. A commitment to an ongoing program of professional development is required. We seek applicants with particular experience or expertise in adult education. The successful applicant will have a demonstrable ability to collaborate/interact effectively with external bodies or agencies. We particularly encourage applications from Indigenous scholars or teachers or researchers with experience of racialization or colonization. All else being equal, we will consider diversity of the candidate to enhance the diversity of the ADED team.

    Qualifications:

    Applicants should have a completed Ph.D./Ed.D. (or near completion) in Adult Education or in a closely related area with doctoral research on a topic relevant to adult education. We will consider candidates with strong indications of imminent completion of a relevant doctoral degree.

    Please submit the following through the online application portal:

  • A cover letter
  • A CV
  • A One-page teaching philosophy statement

    • Three letters of reference may be requested from short-listed candidates.
