4 weeks ago
Appointment Details
SCHOOL OF CHILD & YOUTH CARE
CUPE LOCAL 3904 UNIT 1
Located in downtown Toronto, the largest and most culturally diverse city in Canada and on the territory of the Anishinaabeg, Haudenosaunee and the Wendat Peoples, the School of Child & Youth Care in the Faculty of Community Services welcomes applications for contract lecturers in areas of child and youth care practice. The School focuses on teaching emerging child and youth care practitioners and emerging scholars in the field of child and youth care. The curriculum is focused on theoretical knowledge that informs practice in child and youth care settings such as group homes, foster care, the community, hospitals and schools. There is a very strong focus on the experiences of Black Youth, Indigenous youth, young people identifying as 2SLGBTQ+, and young people with disabilities in systems such as child welfare, child & youth mental health, education, health care and community-based services. Pedagogically, the curriculum draws on professional practice experience in the role of child and youth care practitioner on the part of instructors and faculty members. Our faculty prides itself on the quality of its teaching. We are interested in candidates that will contribute to our existing teaching strengths by bringing innovative and diverse perspectives and experience.
The program offers courses on campus as well as internet only sections. In Fall 2015 Toronto Metropolitan University (formerly Ryerson) adopted D2L Brightspace as its learning management system. Contract lecturers hired to teach online courses are provided with internet access at Toronto Metropolitan University and must become familiar with the D2L Brightspace course management system. The university provides free workshops and contract lecturer support. The contract lecturer will be responsible for minor changes and updating to reflect the current delivery time frames.
Finally, in keeping with School of Child and Youth Care's commitment to advancing equity, diversity and inclusion, with a particular focus on anti-Black racism and anti-Indigenous racism, hiring decisions will be significantly influenced by applicants' demonstrated competency and/or ongoing professional development in these areas.
