Art of Teaching M.S. Ed. Guest Faculty/Lecturer/Instructor Position 2026-2027

Job Description

The Sarah Lawrence College Art of Teaching graduate program is seeking Guest Faculty for a year-long, 10-credit course in the teaching of Mathematics & Technology in Early Childhood and Childhood (birth-6th grade). The course meets once a week (in person, on campus) for 2.5 hours on Tuesday evenings from 9/8/26-5/4/27 (minus college breaks).

This course will place strong emphasis on students’ own understanding of mathematics, as directly related to the mathematics that they will be teaching in early-childhood and elementary-school classrooms. Emphasis will be placed on constructivist teaching and learning; inquiry-based learning; problem solving; and mathematical reasoning, connections, and communication.

Seminar courses include the seminar class and biweekly meetings with individual students to develop a semester-long independent project—conference work—conducted under the instructor’s guidance.

Required Qualifications

Candidates should have a minimum of three years of full-time K-6 teaching experience. Teacher certification is preferred in Early Childhood and/or Childhood Education (birth-6th grade).

Dates of employment: 9/8/26-5/4/27. Compensation for this position is a per-course rate.
