Faculty Position: Education - Mathematics


Tenure Track (Full Time)

POSITION SUMMARY

The Faculty of Education at The King's University invites applications for a full-time, tenure track


appointment in our 2-year B.Ed. After Degree Program, beginning August 1, 2025. Our Christian identity


leads us to see education as a professional vocation shaped by hope. Our Elementary and Secondary


Education programs blend theory, reflective practice, engaging teaching, and extended student-teaching


practicums to inspire students to teach from the heart and from who they are as people. Students are


challenged to develop authentic connections between their faith and teaching practices. The emphasis on


active learning prepares students for the realities of collaborating with colleagues in school settings.


Our education program consistently receives strong reviews from students for the quality of education,


small class sizes, dedicated and expert faculty, and an opportunity to experience in-class teaching with the


longest continuing practicum for an after-degree program in Alberta.


We are seeking a new colleague with an academic background in mathematics education. We are


committed to encouraging students to engage critically with worldviews that shape education and to


develop a conceptual framework for educational thinking and action which expresses their foundational


beliefs about the meaning of human life, stewardship, and sustainability.

academic background in mathematics education. They will have successful K-12 classroom teaching

The successful candidate will demonstrate a developing ability to articulate the connection between
