Part-Time Lecturer: Experiential Learning Internship Seminar
New York University
NYU is committed to providing a campus community that reflects and enacts the values of inclusion, diversity, belonging, and equity that inform academic excellence. NYU?s Washington, DC Academic Center is seeking a local, part-time lecturer to teach an undergraduate course, "Experiential Learning." The course will be under the sponsorship of the College of Arts and Science. The course is expected for Spring 2024 (late January to early May). The class meeting pattern for this 4 credit course will be discussed with qualified applicants during the interview process. In addition to the time required for course preparation, classroom instruction, and assessment, the instructor is required to hold a minimum of one set 60-minute office hour per instruction day, during which the instructor will be available to meet with students. The instructor must be prepared to deliver course content remotely if conditions do not allow in-person instruction. The instructor role includes all preparation, delivery, and grading. Using Washington, DC as a learning tool (e.g., a guest speaker, an excursion) is an expectation for the course. Courses are to be intellectually challenging in content, and rigorous student assessment is required. We are especially interested in qualified candidates who share NYU Washington, DC?s commitment to diversity, equity, and inclusion, and who can contribute to the diversity of intellectual life at our site. Course Description: This course provides the for-credit, academic framework for students engaged in a Washington, DC-based internship. As the academic component of the internship experience, this seminar helps students reflect critically on their internships as a way to further their individual academic and professional goals. This includes evaluating various aspects of the internship site, such as its mission, approach, policies, and the local, regional and international contexts in which it operates. Students will be challenged to think analytically about their internships and host organizations and to connect their internship experiences to past and present professional and academic work. By the end of the course, students will learn how to communicate effectively about their internship and ways to connect this experience to their academic as well as professional goals.
