Calgary, Canada The University of Calgary Full time

**Position Description**

The University of Calgary, located in the heart of Southern Alberta, acknowledges, and pays tribute to the traditional territories of the peoples of Treaty 7, which include the Blackfoot Confederacy (comprised of the Siksika, the Piikani, and the Kainai First Nations) as well as the Tsuut'ina First Nation, and the Stoney Nakoda (including Chiniki, Bearspaw, and Wesley First Nations). The University of Calgary is committed to transformation and renewal as outlined in our Indigenous Strategy, ii' taa'poh'to'p. The strategy guides the University to walk a parallel path in "a good way" with Indigenous communities, create and maintain shared ethical space that is inclusive of Indigenous people's representation, and engage in an evolutionary process in the four primary areas of Ways of Knowing, Ways of Doing, Ways of Connecting, and Ways of Being.

The **University of Calgary** is Canada's leading next-generation university - a living, growing and youthful institution that embraces change and opportunity with a can-do attitude. Located in the nation's most enterprising city, the university is making tremendous progress on its Eyes High journey to be recognized as one of Canada's top five research universities, grounded in innovative learning and teaching and fully integrated with the community it both serves and leads. The University of Calgary inspires and supports discovery, creativity and innovation across all disciplines. For more information, visit ucalgary.ca.

The **Taylor Institute for Teaching and Learning (TI)** is dedicated to strengthening teaching and learning cultures, communities and practices. The TI supports the teaching development of instructors, promotes high-impact student experiences such as experiential and work-integrated learning and undergraduate research, ensures the meaningful integration of learning technologies, supports equity, diversity, inclusion, and accessibility, and Indigenous Ways of Knowing in our teaching and learning environments, and fosters scholarship and research to better understand and improve teaching and student learning.

- Support a culture of respect, kindness, and reciprocity both within and beyond the TI.
- Actively contribute leadership and service to the TI, University, and field of educational development (locally, provincially, nationally and/or internationally)
- Engage in scholarship related to educational development and/or teaching and learning in postsecondary education, including advancing knowledge and practices related to Indigenous pedagogies and Ways of Knowing.
