Job Title:

Lecturer in French and Francophone Studies## Department:

Arts and Sciences | French and Italian The Department of French and Italian at The Ohio State University seeks a full-time, non-tenure-track Lecturer/Associated Faculty member whose work is grounded in evidence-based language teaching and the scholarship and practice of second language acquisition (SLA)/applied linguistics/world language pedagogy. The successful candidate will teach beginning and intermediate French and will also play a key role in strengthening the French basic language program through course coordination, instructional support, and instructor mentorship.

Contract terms are one year, with the possibility of renewals based on positive performance and department needs. A full-time (100%) appointment typically entails teaching four undergraduate courses per semester. Teaching duties include language courses at the beginning and intermediate levels and may include other undergraduate courses in French or large-enrollment general education courses taught in English depending on department needs and candidate expertise.

A defined portion of the workload may be dedicated to French basic language program leadership (e.g., through a service assignment and/or course replacement arrangement), depending on program needs.

Performance Objectives
* Coordinating multi-section beginning and/or intermediate French (alignment of outcomes, shared materials, common assessments, instructional continuity)
* Mentoring and supporting instructors (e.g., graduate teaching associates and/or lecturers) through observation, coaching, and professional development
* Supporting inclusive, effective pedagogy grounded in SLA and current best practices
* Helping the program develop thoughtful and responsible practices around AI and language learning (pedagogical uses, student guidance, academic integrity, transparency, and ethical implementation consistent with university policy)
* Participating in required meetings and contributing to a positive and collegial work environment

Other expectations include interacting with students during regular office hours; attending meetings when required; and contributing to a positive work environment.  The position is open to all specializations.
