Instructor, Indigenous Studies
2 weeks ago
**Job Description**: **CASUAL INSTRUCTOR, INDIGENOUS STUDIES** **FACULTY OF ARTS AND SCIENCES** More than a program, Indigenous Studies strives to be a community centered in Indigenous culture, community, and relationships - to self, one another, the land and our more than human relatives. Authentic, meaningful, and purposeful Indigenous community centered land-based learning experiences are at the heart of our curriculum. Through the intentional interweaving of scholarly academic endeavors with Indigenous community service, engagement, and relational networks of support, we challenge conventional contemporary notions of teacher, text and classroom. Students, Faculty, Staff, Elders, Knowledge Keepers, and Cultural advisors, together strive to create a learning environment grounded in a culture of inclusion and belonging where we all can walk and learn alongside one another, with and from community and the land. NorQuesters are difference makers and we’re searching for a casual Instructor to teach **ONE** or ** BOTH** of the following predeveloped courses as part of our Indigenous Studies Diploma program - please indicate in your cover letter which course(s) you're interested in. **I** **NST 2003 Indigenous Theory & Thought** **Fall Term - Mondays, 12:30 - 3:30pm** This course explores the complex issues associated with Indigenous peoples, their politics, and their relationship with Western theory, research, and knowledge production. Reading from contemporary Indigenous voices across disciplines, the course introduces students to the interventions that Indigenous scholars have made in the production of academic knowledge, as well as their contributions to the burgeoning field of critical race theory. Overall, students will develop the skills to critically examine how Indigenous movements, resistance, culture, and political theory and feminisms challenge structures of "whiteness" and settler colonialism. **INST 1220 Indigenous Political Realities** **Fall Term - Wednesdays, 12:30 - 3:30pm** This course is an introductory survey of settler colonial policies affecting Indigenous peoples in Canada as well as Indigenous efforts to confront these policies. Students will learn about the historical relationships, colonial contexts, and social, economic, political, and cultural patterns that have shaped the contemporary experience of Indigenous peoples in Canada. The course focuses on teaching critical-thinking and writing skills by exploring the impacts of colonization on Indigenous peoples and looking at paths toward decolonization and Indigenous resurgence and self-determination. **HOW YOU'LL MAKE A DIFFERENCE** In an ever-changing world, now more than ever, it is essential to reclaim, restore, establish, build, maintain, preserve, and nurture ties to traditional ways of knowing, ways of being, ways of doing. It is through the revitalization and implementation of traditional land-based community centered principles and practices that the solutions to contemporary societal challenges can be found. It is up to the combined collaborative efforts of community leaders, families, Elders, cultural advisors, knowledge keepers, administrators, educators, and support staff to equip our students with the tools, experience, skills and knowledge required to tackle and overcome these challenges with confidence in themselves and their community. Education and the authentic interweaving and blending of traditional Indigenous ways of knowing with contemporary western education practices is the way forward. Courses in our program are designed with this in mind. **WHAT YOU BRING** - Master’s Degree or PhD, in Indigenous Studies, Sociology, and Political Science or, in a related field with relevant course and research experience in Indigenous Studies. - If your education was received internationally we recommend you obtain an international education assessment through IQAS, WES, or one of the other nationally designated organizations. **WHAT MAKES YOU A DIFFERENCE MAKER** As a difference maker you bring: - Knowledge of an Indigenous language is considered a significant asset. - Experience guiding the interweaving of Indigenous perspectives and pedagogy into the curriculum and course development process. - Experience working with Indigenous community members and interweaving their voices and perspectives into curriculum and new programming. - Experience using Learning Management Systems (LMS) such as Moodle and Blackboard, comfort with technology and software to teach online/hybrid if required. - Curriculum development experience is considered an asset. - Exceptional communication and interpersonal skills. - Strong writing skills. - Demonstrated ability to consistently meet timelines. **SALARY***:Reflective upon what you bring AKA your education and experience plus 11.2% in lieu of vacation and holidays.
