Please forgive crossposting, as usual in these instances. If you know of someone who might be interested (notice that it doesn't need to be an entry-level position), we'd be happy if you'd pass this on. -- Russ St. Thomas University is a small, Catholic, undergraduate, liberal arts university where excellence in undergraduate teaching is the highest institutional priority. The department of education invites applications for a tenure-track appointment to commence July 1, 2000. The appointment is intended to be at an entry level but an appointment at the rank of associate professor might also be considered. The successful candidate will be skilled in a course in teaching methods in addition to possible courses in the areas of educational psychology or secondary methods (language arts/English and social studies/history) or the role of the professional. Applicants should have successful teaching experience in one or more of the K to 12 grades and have demonstrated to themselves and others that they were effective and/or superior classroom teachers. Teaching in a faculty of education would also be beneficial. A Ph.D. or imminent completion is required, as well as a teaching certificate or eligibility for a New Brunswick Teaching Certificate. St. Thomas University's education programme is available to students who have already completed an undergraduate degree. It consists of 60 credit hours over an eleven-month period (Sept. - July), and each year accepts 60 students. Our programme is designed to develop and encourage, through a small and intimate community of learners, effective and competent classroom teachers. As a faculty, we are committed to this model and we are seeking applicants who would welcome the opportunity to work with us in, and help us develop and learn from, this learning community. Each applicant should indicate in the letter of application which profile they feel suits their application, submit a curriculum vitae, samples of scholarly work, evidence of teaching effectiveness (teaching portfolio preferred), and arrange to have three letters of reference sent directly to Dr. Sharon Murray, Chair, Education Department, St. Thomas University, Fredericton, N.B.
