To instruct students at Flagler College and to exhibit professional conduct in the performance of assigned tasks.

We are seeking an instructor to teach courses in Natural Scientific Inquiry in our Core (General Education) Program. Ideally, the instructor will be available to teach a class that meets on Tuesday & Thursday mornings.

Flagler College’s Core Education Curriculum is organized around 9 Core “Literacies” or skills, as well as the College’s Core Values (Transformative Learning; Respectful and Inclusive Community; Citizenship with Integrity; and Thoughtful Stewardship). Courses are designed to address a single literacy, and are themed around one of the College’s Core Values.

Classes in Natural Scientific Inquiry require students to engage in lab work and learn basic aspects of environmental science. Field trips are possible.
