Job Details

Department Summary

UNVS 15 is a statistics course aimed at student who need extra support. UNVS 15 is based on the Statway College + Corequisite course that is part of the Carnegie Math Pathways curriculum offered through WestEd.

Brief Description of Duties

We invite applications for part-time lecturers to teach UNVS 15, Statway: Statistics-Concepts & Methods. The number of positions varies from semester to semester, depending on the needs of the program. Training in the Statway methodology is required to teach the course.

We are seeking outstanding lecturers who can use a variety of high impact pedagogical approaches and who have very strong statistics backgrounds and abilities. Excellence in teaching is expected as well as good oral and written communication skills.

Candidates must demonstrate awareness and experience understanding the needs of a student population of great diversity – in age, cultural background, ethnicity, primary language and academic preparation – through inclusive course materials and teaching strategies.

All classes at SJSU, whether online or not, must be anchored in the Canvas platform to ensure faculty-student connection in a common space as all students are directed to log in to Canvas for online access to their classes. Although the Statway course operates through its own learning management system, that system is integrated into Canvas. You will have access to this system prior to the semester start date.

All classes must be offered and meet as scheduled throughout the entire semester or term, in the mode assigned and listed in the schedule of classes (i.e., asynchronous, synchronous, in-person, or hybrid).
