Language Learning Center Director
The LLC Director must be both a capable administrator and a knowledgeable
technician. The Director is responsible for the day-to-day operation of the
Center and therefore must have the professional and personal skills necessary
to train and to supervise the student staff as well as working with the faculty
of the Department of Modern Languages and Literatures in order to facilitate
both student and faculty use of the Language Learning Center. In this
context, the Director assists faculty in implementing courseware, streaming
video, and other support technologies, and takes the initiative in investigating
and implementing new technological approaches while making sure that the
existing technology in the Center is in good working order. He or she
administers the budget and oversees an on-going planning process which
facilitates the timely maintenance, repair, replacement, and upgrading of
equipment so that the LLC stays abreast of changes in technology. In order
to accurately assess the developing relationship between the Center and the
classroom, the Director will teach three introductory or intermediate language
courses per academic year.
The successful candidate will have a knowledge of and experience with
instructional software, modern language broadcasts, network interfacing, and
emerging as well as existing technologies. He/she will be familiar with
placement exams and will have the ability to implement pedagogy-related
projects. The Director should possess at minimum as M.S. or M.A. in
Instructional Technology and/or in a modern language taught in the
department.
