Posting Summary: The Saturday and Summer Enrichment Program at the Curry School of Education is looking for Lead Teachers for its residential summer camp in June and July of 2019. Classes are taught daily, Monday-Friday, either in the morning or in the afternoon for 6 weeks from June 16th, 2019-July 25th 2019. Teachers will work 8-15 hours per week depending on the class taught. Incumbents attend training, write curriculum, and teach classes to children rising into grades 5-11. Students are grouped in grades 5-6, 7-8, and 9-11. Course proposals can be in almost any subject, including, but not limited to:

Archaeology
Architecture
Biology
Chemistry
Economics
Engineering
Law
Math
Philosophy
Physics
Technology

A Bachelor's Degree is required, but equivalent content area or teaching experience will be considered in lieu of a degree. Experience teaching or performing the discipline or craft in the content area of the course being taught is required. Ability to support the learning of children from diverse backgrounds is required. Experience teaching middle and high school age children in a classroom setting is strongly preferred, or experience teaching at the university level, as is knowledge of curriculum development and classroom management.

Applicant screening begins October 17th, 2018 but the position will remain open until filled.

Please thoughtfully complete all the questions for this application in their entirety. Helpful hints for Course Proposals:

-SEP seeks classes that are not found in the "regular" education coursework. If you wish to teach a more traditional topic (culture classes, astronomy, etc.), find a twist or a new lens for engaging learners with this topic.
-Science, technology, engineering, and mathematics classes are always in high demand. Could you integrate any of these areas into your course at some point?
-SEP values active and authentic learning. Our curriculum focuses less on "content coverage" and more on depth and engaging these learners with key ideas and principles from various disciplines and fields.
-NOTE: This is only a proposal. We just want to find out about your initial ideas - full curriculum development will come later if you're selected for hire.

This is a wage position which is not eligible for leave or other benefits and is limited to 1500 hours of work in a year. For more information, refer to the Wage Employment link: http://uvapolicy.virginia.edu/policy/HRM-029.
