We need to output HTML fragment with sections: headings for sections like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We must only include sections when posting has real specific content. The posting includes Position Summary (maybe About the role), Essential Functions (Responsibilities), Required Qualifications (Qualifications), maybe Skills (some listed), Work Environment (maybe not a standard heading). There's no explicit Benefits, Pay, Schedule. So we should not create those sections.
We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. The posting includes "South University is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." that's boilerplate; we should remove it. Also remove navigation/legal etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to format with

We need to preserve all substantive information, remove boilerplate like EEO, etc. The posting includes "South University is an Equal Opportunity Employer..." that's boilerplate; we should remove it. Also remove navigation/legal etc. Also remove duplicated lines.
We need to format with headings and - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose.
We need to decide sections: maybe "About the role" (Position Summary), "Responsibilities" (Essential Functions), "Qualifications" (Required Qualifications), "Skills" (maybe list of skills like communication, conflict resolution, time management, computer based skills, critical thinking, teaching skills). Also maybe "Work Environment" not a standard heading but could be included as a section? The instruction says use headings for those specific list; but we can also include other headings if they exist? It says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those are typical. Probably we should stick to those. Work Environment could be placed under Responsibilities or maybe as a paragraph.
We need to preserve all substantive information: The Position Summary paragraph: "Instruct and facilitate meaningful learning of the course outcomes in the curriculum and proactively support all facets of the learning environment. Provide education through learning-centered instruction that will enable graduates to fulfill the evolving needs of the marketplace. Encourage a culture of learning that values mutual responsibility and respect, life-long learning, diversity and ethics as well as personal and professional development. Assure that the South University philosophy: quality service to students; development, growth, involvement, and recognition of employees; and environment which is conducive to innovation, positive thinking and expansion is considered in carrying out the duties and responsibilities of this position. Participate in activities that promote the stature of the academic programs, departments, and colleges and abide by the mandates set by the South University Board of Trustees and administration."
That's prose; we can put in
.
Essential Functions: a long list of duties separated by periods. We need to turn into
- items. Let's parse each sentence.
Essential Functions text:
"the educational process to ensure every student is involved in a positive educational experience through the learning, teaching, and social environment.Perform faculty responsibilities as outlined in the faculty job description and in accordance with the provisions of Faculty Supplement to the South University Employee Handbook.Provide course instruction that aligns with the South University model of curricula as well as supports the South University style of system delivery.Design and deliver class instruction through the development of instructional plans to meet course outcomes, the development of activities which support lesson objectives, and for online courses, deliver the instruction as approved within each course shell.Enable the achievement of pre-described outcomes for student achievement and evaluation of learning by providing instruction which fosters proficiency and establishes student performance criteria and evaluation.Deliver learning-centered instruction by establishing a classroom environment conducive to learning and student involvement as well as effectively planning and preparing for classes and student success.Promote student success by showing flexibility in style and work schedule as well as exhibiting a passion for teaching and students and engaging students in the learning process.Manage the learning environment through keeping accurate records, submitting grades and other reports on time, and enforcing academic and attendance policies consistent with the school, campus, or online division.Relate professional/life/industry experience to learning by the continuation of professional/technical skills development, the introduction of industry perspective into courses, and the active awareness of professional/industry trends and opportunities.Participate in the faculty development process to enhance knowledge, skills, and abilities in learner-centered instruction. Communicate consistently and effectively with supervisor(s), faculty, and other South University administrators.Contribute to a learning culture by participating on curriculum and system task forces, support local campus events such as orientation and graduation, and participate in various other workshops and meetings. (Onground)"
We need to split at each period that ends a sentence. Some sentences have internal periods like "e.g."? Not present. There's "(Onground)" at end.
We'll create list items for each sentence.
Now Required Qualifications: multiple sentences. We'll also turn into list.
Required Qualifications text:
"For graduate programs, a terminal degree from a regionally accredited institution in the discipline to be taught, with a concentration in the teaching discipline (minimum of 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline) required.For undergraduate programs, a master’s degree from a regionally accredited institution in the discipline to be taught, with a concentration in the teaching discipline (minimum of 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline) required.Experience in instruction or formalized education process, preferably in a post-secondary or college institution. Membership in a professional association tied to area of instruction preferred.Active, valid, and unencumbered state licensure or certification as applicable to the discipline.At least six months teaching experience at South University or another post-secondary education institution preferred, with online experience a plus (for online only).Excellent verbal and written communication skills including the ability to build successful relationships with student populations.Outstanding conflict resolution skills.Excellent time management and detail-oriented skills.Computer based skills (i.e., software, analytical, and report writing skills).Experience with computerized learning Excellent critical thinking and decision-making skills.Excellent teaching skills as evidenced in prior teaching evaluations."
There's some weird formatting: "Experience with computerized learning Excellent critical thinking..." missing period. We'll treat as separate items.
We'll split at periods.
Now Skills: we could extract skills from qualifications: communication, conflict resolution, time management, detail-oriented, computer based skills, critical thinking, decision-making, teaching skills. Could make a Skills section list.
But we already have those in qualifications; maybe we should not duplicate. The instruction: "Use
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits". So qualifications is a list; we can put them under Qualifications heading. Skills could be separate if there is explicit skills list; but we can also incorporate them into Qualifications. However we have many skill-like items; maybe better to put them under Skills heading and keep Qualifications for degree/experience/licensure etc. Let's see.
The Required Qualifications includes both degree/experience and skill items. We could split: Qualifications heading for degree/experience/licensure; Skills heading for communication, conflict resolution, time management, computer based skills, critical thinking, decision-making, teaching skills.
But we must not invent sections without real specific content. The posting does have those skill items; we can create Skills section.
Thus:
About the role
Position Summary paragraph.
Responsibilities
- ... each essential function.
Qualifications
- degree requirements etc.
Skills
- communication skills etc.
We should not include Benefits, Pay, Schedule.
Now we need to ensure we preserve all substantive information. Let's extract each piece.
Position Summary paragraph: we have it exactly as given. We'll keep as is.
Essential Functions: list each sentence.
Let's copy sentences:
1. the educational process to ensure every student is involved in a positive educational experience through the learning, teaching, and social environment.
2. Perform faculty responsibilities as outlined in the faculty job description and in accordance with the provisions of Faculty Supplement to the South University Employee Handbook.
3. Provide course instruction that aligns with the South University model of curricula as well as supports the South University style of system delivery.
4. Design and deliver class instruction through the development of instructional plans to meet course outcomes, the development of activities which support lesson objectives, and for online courses, deliver the instruction as approved within each course shell.
5. Enable the achievement of pre-described outcomes for student achievement and evaluation of learning by providing instruction which fosters proficiency and establishes student performance criteria and evaluation.
6. Deliver learning-centered instruction by establishing a classroom environment conducive to learning and student involvement as well as effectively planning and preparing for classes and student success.
7. Promote student success by showing flexibility in style and work schedule as well as exhibiting a passion for teaching and students and engaging students in the learning process.
8. Manage the learning environment through keeping accurate records, submitting grades and other reports on time, and enforcing academic and attendance policies consistent with the school, campus, or online division.
9. Relate professional/life/industry experience to learning by the continuation of professional/technical skills development, the introduction of industry perspective into courses, and the active awareness of professional/industry trends and opportunities.
10. Participate in the faculty development process to enhance knowledge, skills, and abilities in learner-centered instruction.
11. Communicate consistently and effectively with supervisor(s), faculty, and other South University administrators.
12. Contribute to a learning culture by participating on curriculum and system task forces, support local campus events such as orientation and graduation, and participate in various other workshops and meetings.
13. (Onground)
Note: The first sentence starts with lowercase "the". Might be a formatting issue; we keep as is.
Now Required Qualifications: split.
Sentences:
1. For graduate programs, a terminal degree from a regionally accredited institution in the discipline to be taught, with a concentration in the teaching discipline (minimum of 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline) required.
2. For undergraduate programs, a master’s degree from a regionally accredited institution in the discipline to be taught, with a concentration in the teaching discipline (minimum of 18 graduate semester hours in the teaching discipline) required.
3. Experience in instruction or formalized education process, preferably in a post-secondary or college institution.
4. Membership in a professional association tied to area of instruction preferred.
5. Active, valid, and unencumbered state licensure or certification as applicable to the discipline.
6. At least six months teaching experience at South University or another post-secondary education institution preferred, with online experience a plus (for online only).
7. Excellent verbal and written communication skills including the ability to build successful relationships with student populations.
8. Outstanding conflict resolution skills.
9. Excellent time management and detail-oriented skills.
10. Computer based skills (i.e., software, analytical, and report writing skills).
11. Experience with computerized learning Excellent critical thinking and decision-making skills.
12. Excellent teaching skills as evidenced in prior teaching evaluations.
Note sentence 11 missing punctuation; we keep as is.
Now Skills: we can extract items 7-12 maybe.
But we might also include "Experience with computerized learning" as a skill? It's more experience. Could be under Qualifications.
Let's decide: Qualifications will contain items 1-6 (degree, experience, membership, licensure, experience at SU, etc). Skills will contain items 7-12 (communication, conflict resolution, time management, computer based skills, experience with computerized learning + critical thinking, teaching skills). However item 11 includes both "Experience with computerized learning" and "Excellent critical thinking and decision-making skills". Might split.
Better to keep Qualifications as all items; Skills maybe not needed. But we need to avoid thin sections. If we make Skills, we need to ensure we have substantive content. We have several skill items; that's okay.
Thus:
Qualifications list: items 1-6.
Skills list: items 7-12.
Now we need to output HTML fragment only.
Let's craft.
We'll need to escape any HTML special characters? The text includes ampersand? Not really. We'll keep as plain text.
We'll output:
About the role
Instruct and facilitate meaningful
- for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. We need to decide sections: maybe "About the role" (Position Summary), "Responsibilities" (Essential Functions), "Qualifications" (Required Qualifications), "Skills" (maybe list of skills like communication, conflict resolution, time management, computer based skills, critical thinking, teaching skills). Also maybe "Work Environment" not a standard heading but could be included as a section? The instruction says use headings for those specific list; but we can also include other headings if they exist? It says use
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It doesn't forbid other headings, but suggests those are typical.
