I have resigned my lectureship at Melbourne University, effective from the end of this year. In order for the University to have up-to-date informational materials ready for 2014, there is a keenness to settle on a replacement lecturer by mid-August. This is a sessional role, requiring just the delivery of two 2-hour lectures a week during the second semester of the year (from late July to early December) along with assignment marking. The lectures can held on the same day to minimise disruption to your other work. (I have been holding them on Mondays: 2.15 to 4.15 and 5.15 to 7.15, but the choice is up to the lecturer.) You can get some idea of the course I developed and teach by visiting https://handbook.unimelb.edu.au/view/2013/PUBL90005. There is, however, no obligation on the new lecturer to teach the same material (although there is an obligation to teach what is advertised in the university handbook each year the cut-off for which is the previous August). I'm happy to answer questions from anyone who might be interested. I am also happy to share some of the lecturing next year if you feel that you won't have time to develop a complete yourself. You can also seek information from, and make an application to: Dr Mark Davis Program Coordinator Publishing and Communications Program Department of English University of Melbourne, Parkville, 3010 Mark's email address is davismr@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx.
