The Economics Department is seeking course facilitators to support faculty members teaching on-campus and online courses. Course facilitators improve the student experience by assisting course instructors with tasks such as providing timely responses to student questions, grading assignments, holding virtual office hours, monitoring discussion boards, and entering grades in a learning management system. Quick responses and turnaround times are vital to student success. Duties will vary based on course and instructor.
This is not a continuous position, but an on-call position; facilitators will be assigned to courses based on their areas of expertise. Initially, facilitators will be assigned to individual courses. Based on needs of the department, facilitators may also be invited to facilitate additional courses; additional courses may overlap by prior arrangement between the department and facilitator. Facilitators are also expected to provide their own computing devices and have reliable high-speed access to internet to work from other locations. No special software will be required; although the device(s) must be capable of accessing the LMS, Microsoft, and Adobe applications, and using virtual conferencing software.
