Sessional Instructor – Literature and Composition Reading Narrative (ENG 113.3)

INTERNAL/EXTERNAL

Competition Code: 2504 100S 113.3 Nov 28

Responsibilities: SUNTEP Saskatoon requires a sessional instructor for ENG 113.3. The class is an introduction to the major forms of narrative literature in English. In addition to learning the tools of critical analysis, students will study and practice composition. This course has two purposes: to teach students to become better readers and better writers. Students will find common patterns between famous works of fiction and their everyday lives, enhancing their literary knowledge and communication skills in the process. English 113 focuses on analyzing different types of narration (i.e., first-person and third person) in a variety of literary media. Authors will be used to ask questions about how authors’ narration and medium decisions affect how we read and understand their texts. In answering these questions, students will have the opportunity to actively improve their analytical, reading, and writing skills.

The assignment would involve planning, preparation and delivery of appropriate course instruction to students. Manage classroom activities to ensure an optimum learning environment for students. Evaluate student performance and provide consistent feedback. Awareness and implementation of culturally responsive approaches is an asset.

Qualifications: The candidate must possess a master’s degree and/or equivalent combination of training and experience in the content area and be approved by the University of Saskatchewan. Strong interpersonal and communication skills, flexibility and the ability to work with Indigenous student populations are an asset.
