VACANCY: Online tutor (part-time)
The Educational Development Unit at the University of Greenwich are looking for a new online tutor (part-time) to support delivery of our expanding international postgraduate certificate in Higher Education. There are still 10 days till the closing date, so do please send on to anyone you know who may be interested, and get in touch if you are interested yourself!
Our PGCert in HE is a highly interactive online blended programme which models a range of pedagogies and innovations in HE teaching, promoting engagement with various approaches to teaching, learning and assessment and using a variety of models and tools. Most teaching and learning activities take place online and the programme uses a variety of web 2.0 tools, including Moodle and Adobe Connect, to provide a socially interactive and engaging experience.
The online tutor plays a key academic and pastoral support role, supporting both the students and the programme team, developing activities and resources to help students succeed in making the most of the technology in their learning, including managing the VLE and, with the programme team, running webinars and online Study Days. They support groupwork and monitor online presence, offering support where appropriate. The online tutor usually participates in face-to-face Study Days on campus.
The role is part-time and flexible, including an indicative baseline 2-3 hours a week during term time and work outside terms as negotiated. It is an hourly-paid role, with a (potentially) continuously rolling one year contract. The role and remit has become well-established and there is potential to develop the role further or in particular directions, shaped by the strengths and interests of the person appointed.
