**Senior Lecturer (Science Extended Studies Programme Coordinator)(Grade: SL)**
**CHERTL- Extended Studies Unit**
**The Department - Description of the Department**
The work of CHERTL involves the development of academic staff as professional educators, the promotion and assurance of quality in teaching and learning, and the development of student learning in conjunction with academic departments, the latter more directly through the work of the Extended Studies Unit (ESU). In addition CHERTL also functions as an academic department of Rhodes University focused on Higher Education as a field of study and the development of teaching and learning in higher education.
The Centre conducts research on teaching and learning in higher education and offers formal programmes in Higher Education Studies contributing to the development of quality teaching and learning. The Centre is also responsible for promoting service-learning within the institution, for the administration and development of the New Generation of Academics (nGAP), for enhancing the quality of short courses and supporting tutor coordinators.
The scope of CHERTL’s work moves beyond the institution, playing an active role at national and international levels. CHERTL contributes significantly to the national higher education landscape, both through the offering of formal qualifications at other institutions as well as through representation on national bodies such as the Higher Education Learning and Teaching Association of Southern Africa (HELTASA) and the Higher Education Quality Committee (HEQC).
**Main Objectives**
- All academics are responsible for disseminating knowledge (teaching and learning), creating knowledge (research), community engagement, and professional involvement in their field beyond the university, recognizing differences in executing these responsibilities within the various departments and Faculties. Academics are also expected to assume administrative, management, and/or leadership duties at the departmental, Faculty, and/or University levels.
- The Science Extended Studies program (SESP) has three courses: Mathematics Foundation (MAT 1F), Computer Skills for Science (CSS 1S), and Introduction to Science Concepts and Methods (ISCM). While the mathematics course is in the Mathematics Department, the other two are in the Extended Studies Unit.
**The Requirements**
- A PhD degree in Science or Science Education. An educational qualification is highly recommended.
- Ability to augment and teach first-year disciplinary (science) knowledge and the Scientific Literacies of the ISCM course.
- Extensive teaching, tutoring, or facilitation experience in higher education is required.
- Experience teaching on an extended curriculum programme would be a distinct advantage.
- Staff Mentoring and supervision experience would be an advantage.
- At least a good level of research is required.
- Track record of administration, management, and leadership roles at a formal level.
**Application Process**
**The following documents are required**:
- A comprehensive CV and relevant qualifications which should include the following:
- Reasons for leaving your current and previous jobs.
- A strong and succinct motivation which tells us your interest in the post and suitability relative to the job requirements.
- Short-listing meeting TBC.
- The selection process that will be followed for this post will include a presentation and an interview.

Basic Pensionable Salary per annum: R742 411
