    Bucknell is seeking a well-qualified, experienced Instructional
    Technologist and Designer dedicated to furthering the meaningful
    integration of technology, teaching and learning in a liberal arts
    university or college setting. The ideal Instructional Technologist and
    Designer (ITD) candidate will have a deep awareness of and direct
    experience with applying best-practice instructional design principles in a
    higher education context, and in particular an expertise in bringing
    pedagogically-informed strategies and technologies to his/her work with
    faculty, developing well thought-out methods for understanding both the
    current needs of students and the end goals of instruction. In addition,
    the successful ITD will have a deep understanding of the critical role that
    assessment plays in this work and will have the ability to translate
    assessment theory into practice. The ITD will partner with faculty across
    all disciplines to facilitate innovative course development and
    redevelopment at the University.

    The ten-member Instructional Technology team and the division of Library
    and Information Technology maintain a highly collaborative work environment
    and as such we anticipate hiring an ITD who will embrace hard work,
    dedication, and laughter while working in a team-oriented group. In
    addition, we seek a colleague who is naturally curious, possesses a
    willingness to embrace change, and relishes tinkering with new
    technologies. The ideal candidate’s experience and expertise will
    contribute to Bucknell’s commitment to diversity and inclusiveness.

    Bucknell University is a private, highly ranked, national liberal arts
    institution that also offers strong professional programs in engineering,
    business, education, and music. Located in Central Pennsylvania along the
    Susquehanna River, Bucknell is nestled in the Borough of Lewisburg, an
    appealing Victorian-style town ranked as one of America’s best small towns.
    Lewisburg and the surrounding region offer a unique combination of outdoor
    recreation opportunities, small-town charm, and appealing amenities such as
    restaurants, art galleries, an art deco theater, museums, and boutiques. In
    addition to the many cultural and athletic events offered by the University
    and the Borough, the surrounding region offers outstanding schools, medical
    facilities, and an affordable cost of living. For those who crave the city,
    Bucknell is within an easy three-hour drive to Philadelphia, New York,
    Baltimore, and Washington, D.C.

    Application review will begin on January 15, 2015.
