The Conference on College Composition and Communication (CCCC) is seeking applications from CCCC members for the CCCC Connected Community Editor. This is a volunteer position with a term of three years (non-renewable) beginning in January 2013, including a transition period in the fall of 2012, and ending in December of 2015.
The Connected Community Editor will have the responsibility of orchestrating uses of and foster conversation in the CCCC Connected Community, moderating the community space, publishing relevant information, and working with NCTE/CCCC staff and leadership to develop a stronger community with new features. There will be technical support from the NCTE/CCCC staff so that actual programming or Web building is not required. In addition, the CCCC Connected Community Editor will be responsible for managing and increasing CCCC’s presence on social media platforms, including but not limited to Facebook and Twitter.
CCCC encourages individual CCCC members or teams of members to apply for this position. At the discretion of the CCCC Connected Community Editor, a supportive task force of volunteers can be appointed by the CCCC Chair to assist with the moderation of the Connected Community and other duties as needed.
Institutional Support: Recommended one course release per year.
CCCC Support: Free CCCC membership and conference registration.
Application Process: Please submit by August 10, 2012 a cover letter, cv, a sample of published writing relevant to this position and its required skill set, and a one-page statement of the applicant's vision for fostering an active community space in the CCCC Connected Community. Two reference letters from CCCC members attesting to the applicant's qualifications can be sent under separate cover.
Applications should be emailed to Kristen Suchor, CCCC Administrative Liaison, at cccc@ncte.org.
