Job Details

The MA Program in Educational Transformation at Georgetown University is looking for an adjunct instructor to teach a 3-credit graduate level course, Advocating for Learners and Learning, in our Summer Session this May and June. This course serves as the capstone experience for the MA in Educational Transformation. The instructor for this course would leverage their field-based experience to leverage the project-based learning format of this course and engage teacher candidates and aspiring education policy actors/advocates collaboratively in work that addresses real-world equity challenges in education from a systems-thinking perspective.

The MA Program in Educational Transformation (https://edtransform.georgetown.edu/) is a 1-year, graduate level program designed to prepare professionals to advance equity in K-12 education across multiple domains: race, class, linguistic diversity and among students with disabilities. We take a critical stance towards educational policies and practices and seek to develop among our students the skills to transform educational settings and contexts to promote equity. We take an explicitly anti-racist position in our program and an asset-based approach in our pedagogy; we expect all faculty to uphold and model those commitments in their teaching.

The course runs from May 20, 2024-June 28, 2024, meeting on Tuesdays and Thursdays, 5:00pm-8:25pm. The expected pay for this course is $10,000. If you are interested in applying please email your CV, any college-level teaching evaluations, and the names of three references to Prof. Lourdes Ortega, the interim program director, at edtransform@georgetown.edu.
