Hi all, I run a new major at Fordham - Digital Technologies and Emerging Media. I will also be on sabbatical next year. We are looking for a lecturer for 2016-2017 to teach Social Media (using a critical, media studies/STS/CMC approach) and 2 other classes. I'm happy to answer questions. All you need to do is send a CV, cover letter & proposed syllabus for Social Media to our chair, Jackie Reich ( jreich8@fordham.edu) by THIS MONDAY 4/25. Appointment is in the Bronx at our Rose Hill campus. I live in Manhattan and commute there- you can take Metro North or the subway pretty much directly to Fordham. You can see my current social media syllabus here: http://www.tiara.org/blog/wp-content/uploads/2016/04/Social-Media-3307-Spr16... Classes are capped at 35. Lecturers get health benefits. CALL: We are searching for a one-year, lecturer appointment with a 4-3 course load, to begin Fall 2016 with the possibility of renewal. It has been determined that our greatest need for that position is in Digital Technology and Emerging Media. Teaching responsibilities would be primarily at FCRH, but there may be some opportunities at FCLC as well. For Fall 2016 the lecturer would have the following schedule: DTEM 3476 Social Media: MT 11:30-12:45 DTEM 3476 Social Media MT 4:00-5:15 Plus two additional courses The course description for DTEM 3476 is as follows: (Formerly COMM 3307): This class critically examines popular computer-mediated communication technologies such as Facebook, Twitter, and YouTube. Students will critically analyze, use, and encounters broad range of social technologies. Students will also learn basic social media skills, “best practices,” and create and propagate content. The lecturer will teach two other courses TBD based on the candidate's area of specialization. The Spring semester is more flexible. If you are interested or know of someone who might be interested, please send/have them send a letter of interest and a CV to me, as well as a proposed syllabus for DTEM 3476. I would need to receive all materials by Monday, April 25. Please let me know if you have any questions, and please feel free to circulate this call widely.
