Description

The Educational Communication and Technology program in the Steinhardt
School of Culture, Education, and Human Development at New York
University invites applications and nominations for an open rank,
tenured/tenure-track position in the area of learning, measurement,
and assessment with digital media with primary responsibilities in the
graduate program. The ECT programs--the Ph.D. in Educational
Communication and Technology (ECT), the M.A. and Advanced Certificate
in Digital Media Design for Learning (DMDL), and M.S. in Games for
Learning (G4L)--offer graduate instruction in the design, development,
implementation, and evaluation of a broad range of digital media-based
learning environments, including simulation and games, mobile apps,
and online experiences. The programs aspire to contribute to the
ideals of social equity and an informed and participatory citizenry
through design and scholarship.
Qualifications
An earned doctorate is required in Learning Sciences, Educational
Psychology, Cognitive Science, Educational Technology, Human-Computer
Interaction, Computer Science, Data Science, or a related field.
Candidates should have a strong program of theory-based research on
the design or use of digital media for learning, measurement, or
assessment that advances the field. Research specializations that
include new and emerging learning-related areas, such as educational
data mining, learning analytics, or visual analytics, are of
particular interest. The ECT programs are interested in theoretical
and applied research on learning in traditional and nontraditional
settings and learning outcomes.
Responsibilities
In addition to service at the program, school, and university levels,
responsibilities will include: (1) engagement in an active program of
scholarly research related to the design, use, and study of digital
media for learning, teaching, or assessment; (2) design and teaching
of courses primarily at the graduate level; (3) advisement and
supervision of undergraduates and of graduate student masters theses
and doctoral dissertations; (4) development of research grant
proposals to appropriate federal agencies, foundations, and private
donors.
