*POSITION #1*

The Curriculum and Instruction at Purdue University invites applicants for
a postdoctoral position to conduct science education research in
linguistically diverse high school classrooms for the academic year
2018-2019.



The postdoctoral scholar will join a research team to work on NSF-funded
project, Professional development for K-12 science teachers in
linguistically diverse classrooms. The project aims to develop, implement,
and study professional development to promote teaching and learning of
English learners in linguistically diverse high school science classrooms.
The professional development program is embedded within a school-based
afterschool program and utilizes the Lesson Study model that engages
teachers in ongoing collaborative workshop sessions with colleagues and the
project team.



The successful applicant will play a key role in project management,
implementation, and dissemination. Duties include collecting and analyzing
qualitative data (e.g., classroom observation, interviews, video analysis),
developing and implementing professional development for high school
science teachers, presenting project findings at regional, national, and
international meetings, and writing manuscripts for publications.



This position requires a PhD in science education, knowledge and expertise
in one or more science subject area, and extensive experiences in
qualitative research. Individuals with experiences and expertise in
video-based research techniques using video analysis software,
practice-based teacher professional development, designing and facilitating
afterschool STEM programs, and teaching and conducting research in
linguistically diverse learning environments are encouraged to apply.



To apply, please send a letter of application that describes your
background, research interests, and qualifications, a curriculum vitae, a
sample of scholarly writing, and names of three references to Dr. Ryu.
Review of applications will begin immediately and will continue until the
position is filled. Continuation of this position beyond one year is
contingent upon the availability of funding and satisfactory accomplishment
of duties. The planned start date for the position is August 13, 2018.
Questions about this position and application process can be sent to Dr.
Minjung Ryu at mryu at purdue.edu.



*POSITION #2*

UNAVCO invites applications for the staff position of Education and
Community Engagement Specialist, responsible for managing the portfolio of
work under the geoscience workforce (geo-workforce) initiative including a
strong emphasis on broadening participation. The geo-workforce initiative
aims to facilitate the development of a robust, well-trained and diverse
geoscience workforce with the knowledge, skills, and abilities to tackle
emerging scientific and societal issues. The work portfolio includes
multiple internship programs, supporting UNAVCO efforts in increasing
diversity in the geoscience workforce, and developing programmatic support
for students, early career professionals, and researchers in the geodetic
and geophysics community. The successful candidate will be a member of the
Education and Community Engagement program staff. https://unavcocareers.
