Since opening in 1975, Griffith has grown from one campus and 451 students to become a comprehensive, multi-campus institution, with 50,000 students and more than 200,000 graduates.

Our School is committed to the highest standards of learning and teaching across our diverse academic programs and courses.

About the Opportunity

Our Team Based Learning Facilitators are expected to make contributions to the teaching and learning efforts of the School of Medicine and Dentistry and to carry out activities which support, maintain and develop scholarly, and/or professional activities relevant to the discipline of medicine.

They will facilitate large and small groups of students through their classroom activities and prepare for classroom activity using the guidelines provided by the Course Convenor.

Facilitators will be available through TBL classes to supervise and respond to student queries and collaborate with co-facilitators to promote group work and active participation of students in classroom activity.

We are therefore seeking applicants with some expertise and experience in developing and demonstrated experience in managing curriculum and course requirements within a medical program.

The incumbent will work in a small team of academics, clinicians and other facilitators and will contribute to the development and delivery of the School's Doctor of Medicine program.

These are casual academic positions based at Griffith University's Gold Coast campus.

Salary range

Facilitators will be paid at the 'Other Required Academic Activity Rate' of between $ $56.81 per hour depending on the nature of their qualifications.

Facilitators will be paid for delivery time, a pre-determined allocation for preparation for each TBL session, as well as an allocation for attendance at briefings/de-briefings which would be equivalent to nine (9) hours per week.

About You

Further, you will have a demonstrated track-record in promoting and supporting a student-centred service culture and establishment of positive, respectful, and supportive relationships between staff and students.
