Open Rank
The School of Education's new Learning Sciences Program was created
through a Chancellor's initiative to expand Indiana University's already
world class programs in Cognitive Science, Informatics, and Education.
The Learning Sciences Program, housed in the School of Education,
expects to fill three new positions over the next two years. Candidates
are expected to have interests in both research and teaching. Rank,
teaching responsibilities, and specific research specializations are
open - although at the present time, we are looking for outstanding
assistant or associate professors, and especially for those with
expertise in mathematics or science learning. Existing faculty in the
program already have strong working relationships not only with IU's
programs in Cognitive Science and Informatics but also with fields
ranging from technology education and assessment to other
learning-related programs inside and outside the School of Education.
Our programs and projects typically integrate multiple practical and
theoretical perspectives, and they often involve the design of
innovative and effective learning environments - for individuals or
groups, for children through adult, and for use inside or outside of
schools.
Indiana University's School of Education in Bloomington has over 100
faculty and awards over 900 baccalaureate, master's and doctoral degrees
each year making it a rich environment to impact teacher education as
well as education beyond schools. Our facilities are state of the art
with advanced networking environments. The campus itself has been rated
one of the best wired in the nation. The IUB campus sits in the rolling
hills of southern Indiana with forests and the largest lake in the state
nearby. It is a culturally rich environment, featuring one of the
nation's premier music schools. For more information contact the Chairs
of the Search Committee: Tom Duffy (duffy@indiana.edu) 812-856-8459 or
Ken Hay (kehay@indiana.edu) 812-856-8555.
APPLICATION PROCESS
Review of applications will begin on December 4, 2006 and will continue
until the positions are filled. Applicants should send a letter
describing teaching and research interests, names of at least 3
references, and a curriculum vitae to:
Tom Duffy and Ken Hay, co-chairs
