Description:

NTRC – Assistant Professor in Technology Assisted Language Learning (TALL)
 
The Department of Modern Languages and Classics invites applications for a
non-tenure track renewable contract (NTRC) position as Assistant Professor of
Technology Assisted Language Learning (TALL) beginning August, 2019. This is a
renewable position with opportunities for promotion to higher rank. The
applicant should also have expertise in at least one of the languages taught
in the department and have native or near-native competence in that language.
Candidates with relevant secondary areas of expertise, for example experience
with qualitative research and/or assistance with language program direction,
are encouraged to apply. 

Minimum requirements include: 
A Ph.D. or equivalent in TALL, CALL, Second Language Acquisition, Applied
Linguistics, or related field, with a particular focus on the use of
technology in instructed SLA. Experience with technology-enhanced curriculum
development, materials, and assessments is also desirable.
 
The successful candidate will teach undergraduate and graduate courses in his
or her language and area of expertise. In addition to teaching, he or she is
expected to participate in and/or coordinate interdisciplinary workshops and
other events attended by linguists and other language educators at large on
campus. Other service may include committee participation both within the
Department and across campus, given the variety of applications of TALL across
education and human development, and the potential for collaboration with
other UA Colleges such as Nursing, Business, and Education. 
 
Applicants should be completed via the online application at the application
link provided below. The online application requires the following two
documents: a letter of application describing relevant teaching and research
experience, including evidence of teaching effectiveness, and a curriculum
vitae. Three letters of recommendation should be sent directly to the chair of
the search committee, Dr. Erin O’Rourke, at eorourke at ua.edu. Applications will
be reviewed on an ongoing basis starting December 1, 2018. We expect to
conduct preliminary conversations with select applicants via telephone or
videoconference and final interviews on campus.
