Dear Colleagues, Due to unexpected staff illness, the School of Arts & Media, Buckinghamshire New University, is urgently looking for an Hourly Paid Lecturer to cover five weeks of teaching on the following Media Studies undergraduate modules, starting week-beginning Monday 2nd March: Level 6 - Politics of Childhood Level 5 - TV Drama Each of these modules require two hours of contact time per week, in the form of classroom workshops. Suitable applicants should hold a postgraduate qualification, have some experience of teaching at HE level, and have research interests in the areas of children's media/representations of childhood, and ideally have some knowledge of the history and sociology of childhood (in the case of Politics of Childhood) and British television history, period drama, and American TV drama on British screens (in the case of TV Drama). Ideally, the applicant would be able to cover both areas, but we are willing to consider dividing the work according to expertise. The applicant would also be expected to mark assessments for taught modules (as well as moderate on a Level 4 module called Media Contexts), and this assessment work would paid in addition to teaching hours. All teaching plans and assessment have already been prepared, and relevant documentation will be provided. Interested parties should contact Greg Singh in the first instance.
