In Class Set Up And Teaching Support

£35,100 - £35,100
England-London
Temporary / Interim
 

Job Description

This role is both a technical and a teaching supporting role, providing disability support for one student to be able to fully engage in all weekly sessions and ensuring that the academic staff member leading the session is supported in starting and running it smoothly.   



These teaching sessions involve students being both online and in class at the same time. Cameras and microphones in the room pick up a view of the students in class, and a large screen shows a view of the students online so both groups are connected. The equipment takes a few minutes to set up and needs someone with a calm manner and reasonable computing expertise. Setting up involves ensuring the staff member logs in, has the microphone and audio settings organized appropriately, and is ready to go at the start of the session. Instructions on how to do this will be supplied to the job applicant, and induction/training will be provided.  



The aim of the role is to ensure that the student can fully engage in each session, as well as that every session can start smoothly and the technical equipment works well. It will also involve representing the student in the classroom as needs be. 



The role would be based in central London at the Strand/Bush House campus. Staff would be expected to be dressed in a professional manner (eg shirt or polo shirt or equivalent), and always be courteous and polite. The role requires 6 hours of commitment per week. The schedule is as follows: Monday 9:00-11:00, Tuesday 12:00-14:00, and Thursday 14:00-16:00. Additionally, there is going to be an extra session on Wednesday 12th October 13:30-15:30. Candidates being able to commit to only some of the outlined hours will also be considered for this role and are encouraged to apply.  



There will be a day of training at the start – part of which would be reading online, part of which would be online meeting/training and problem solving, and part of which would be in room practice. (Applicants will be expected to make use of their own laptop to do online training). The first day’s work would be on the 26th, and there will be day of induction/training would need to be done prior (in the week of the 19th, probably on the 22nd Sept). All training would be paid for. The role will last for the entirety of semester 1, and there will be possibility to extend to semester 2.
