Part-time Teaching at Gwinnett Tech

[Cynthia Jeness <cj@goldencode.com>]

I received the information below from Lorri  Christopher
(LChristopher@gwinnett.tec.ga.us) with regard to their need for
part-time Java instructors.  Although the monetary reward is not
necessarily great, teaching these classes can be rewarding in other
ways.   I taught a class at Gwinnett Tech a couple of years ago and
really enjoyed it.

If you are interested, please send your resume directly to Lorri.  As
Lorri noted, you must have an appropriate degree.

Cynthia,
I have been buried, but am enclosing the curricula outline for the Java
classes as well as the slots I need filled.
It helps for the person to have teaching experience. The offers for
instructors are made based on classes having
suffcient enrollment.

The following classes are needing instructors:
Intro to Java       CIS252    Saturday
9:00am-4:30pm Saturday, March 30 - June 1
Intermed Java    CIS2431     Online using
Blackboard                         March 26-June 6, 2002
Intermed Java    CIS2431     Friday
8:00am-4:00pm  March 26-June 6, 2002
Advanced Java  CIS2421    M, T, W, Th                    1:00pm-3:00pm
March 26-June 6, 2002
Advanced Java  CIS2421    Online using
Blackboard                           March 26-June 6, 2002
Advanced Java  CIS2421    Saturday                        9:00am-4:30pm
Saturday, March 30 - June 1

Attached below are the course syllabbi.

I would be ever so grateful for your assistance and that of the Atlanta
Java User's Group.

Please forward any resumes of people that you think would be good
instuctors, and have teachning experience. It is
critical that they have as a minimum Associate or Bachelor degrees. Java
certification would be great.

As ever, you are always so helpful. Have you enjoyed the Blackboard
site.
