Description:

Call for Proposals for Development of an Uzbek Advanced Textbook

The Center for Languages of the Central Asian Region (CeLCAR) is calling for
proposals for experienced Uzbek language specialists to develop a textbook
aiming to teach Uzbek at the advanced level, suitable for use both in American
higher education settings and for self study.

Successful proposals will begin on or around Monday, July 8, 2013, and will
produce a finished and tested product to be considered for publication by
Georgetown University Press or another major publisher. CeLCAR will provide
the developers with compensation in line with qualifications and as benchmarks
are met. Successful applicants will also be expected to participate as
instructors in IU’s well known eight week intensive summer program (with
additional pay), and participate in pre- and post-session workshops. Graduate
students specializing in language education/language acquisition are also
invited to apply, and may be given a GA position.

Developers must be self-motivated and able to meet strict project deadlines
with minimal supervision. They will also receive assistance from CeLCAR’s
staff in establishing scope and sequence, printing, lay out, preparing
audio/visual materials for inclusion in the textbook, and English editing and
polishing. This job may be done by telecommuting from a remote location, such
as from a location in Central Asia.

Applicants must be native speakers of Uzbek from Uzbekistan with linguistic or
pedagogical training, and preferably have experience teaching Uzbek as a
second language (preferably in the United States or other English speaking
environment), and TOEFL scores of 500 or equivalent. Proposals should include:
a curriculum vita, a description of the proposed textbook including design
principles and rationale, a draft scope and sequence for the first four units,
and sample unit on any topic appropriate for an advanced-level course.

Please send your proposal by our priority deadline of Monday, July 1, 2013, to
the application email, or by mail to the application address listed below.
Indiana University is an equal opportunity / affirmative action employer.
