We need to output HTML fragment with sections for headings where there is content. Use

for section headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We need to include only sections with real specific content. We have job description: "Function of Position:" includes duties. Could map to About the role (maybe summary) and Responsibilities. We have "Examples of Duties & Responsibilities:" list. We have "MCC Expectations:" maybe part of Requirements or Skills? Could be part of Requirements. We have "Job Requirements:" with Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications. We have mention of benefits: "This position is eligible for paid time off and benefits." That's a benefit statement but not specific details. According to rules: never create Benefits section unless posting actually states them. It does state eligibility for paid time off and benefits, but not specifics. Is that enough? It says "eligible for paid time off and benefits." That's a statement about benefits. We could include a Benefits section with that statement. However rule: never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g., "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD"). "eligible for paid time off and benefits" is not filler; it's a statement. So we can include Benefits section with that sentence. Pay: Not mentioned. So no Pay section. Schedule: Not mentioned (part-time 80% maybe indicates schedule? It says Part-Time (80%). That could be considered schedule info. The posting says "Position Title: Faculty, Part-Time (80%)". That indicates schedule: part-time 80%. Could be considered schedule. We could include Schedule section with that detail. However rule: only include if posting actually states them. It does state Part-Time (80%). So we can include Schedule. We need to avoid repeating job title as heading. So no heading for title. We need to include metadata like location, posted date maybe as short paragraph. We must preserve all substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to include all duties, requirements, etc. We need to use
  • for any list of duties/requirements/benefits. For prose use

    . We need to decide sections: - About the role: could contain the "Function of Position:" paragraph (summary). That's prose. - Responsibilities: the list under "Examples of Duties & Responsibilities:" (multiple bullet points). Use

    • . - Requirements: maybe combine "Job Requirements:" with Required Qualifications and Preferred Qualifications? Could split into Requirements (maybe required) and Qualifications (preferred). But we have both Required and Preferred qualifications. Could put Required Qualifications under Requirements section, and Preferred Qualifications under Qualifications section. Or combine. The instruction: Use headings for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). So we can have Requirements and Qualifications separate. - Skills: maybe we can extract from MCC Expectations or from Required Qualifications like communication skills, technological proficiency, etc. Could create Skills section. - Benefits: statement about paid time off and benefits. - Schedule: Part-Time (80%). We must not create sections with filler. Ensure each section has substantive content. Let's extract content.

This position is eligible for paid time off and benefits." That could be part of About the role or separate. We'll include in About the role paragraph. Thus About the role: combine Function of Position sentence plus the temporary grant-funded note. Let's craft:

      About the role

      Faculty prepare and teach face-to-face and online courses in the Optical Systems Technology program, develop new educational materials, assist with the assessment of student learning, as appropriate, perform professional duties, and participate in departmental and institutional functions, including department meetings and committee work. Faculty report to the chairperson of the Optical Systems Technology program. The successful candidate will bring a passion for teaching and a desire to support and mentor MCC students as they pursue educational and career goals. This is a temporary, grant-funded position that may be renewed annually contingent upon availability of grant funding and performance reviews. This position is eligible for paid time off and benefits.

      Now Responsibilities: list each duty from "Examples of Duties & Responsibilities:" each as
    • . Need to preserve each bullet exactly as text. List: - Demonstrates and maintains current subject area knowledge. - Teaches courses and evaluates student performance in Optical Systems Technology as per guidelines set by the department and Monroe Community College. - Teaches multiple courses/sections each term, as outlined by the contract and as available. - Develops online Optical Systems Technology courses. - Prepares lesson plans and creates instructional materials and activities for student engagement. - Prepares Course Information Sheet/Syllabus/Outlines in accordance with department and College guidelines. - Establishes and maintains an engaging and supportive classroom environment. - Maintains student attendance records, grades, and other records according to department and College guidelines and submits them in a timely manner. - Assists department with student retention and completion initiates including early alert. - Develops innovative teaching pedagogies to facilitate learning. - Incorporates high-impact teaching practices into course design, as appropriate. - Actively engages in pedagogical and academic discipline professional development. - Demonstrates excellent time management skills, and the ability to prioritize workflow and multi-task. - Performs other duties and responsibilities assigned by the department chair, as appropriate. Note: "completion initiates" maybe typo but we keep. Now Requirements: Required Qualifications. We need to list each requirement as
    • . The required qualifications paragraph includes multiple items separated by periods. Let's split: - Earned bachelor's degree or higher in Optics (or related field) from a regionally accredited higher education institution OR associate's degree in Optics from a regionally accredited higher education institution, along with three (3) or more years of experience in an Optics-related field. - Evidence of effective communication (interpersonal, speaking, and writing) skills. - Commitment to supporting an inclusive campus environment. - Evidence of respect for and understanding of people with diverse backgrounds, abilities, and needs. - Evidence of commitment to the philosophy of a comprehensive community college. - Evidence of proficiency with technology. - Commitment to continued professional growth. We'll put each as
    • . Now Qualifications: Preferred Qualifications. List: - Earned master's degree or Ph.D. degree in Optics (or related field) from a regionally-accredited higher education institution. - Five (5) or more years' industrial/field experience. - Teaching experience in Optics or related discipline. - Familiarity with one or more of the following course topics: Conventional Optical Fabrication, CNC Optical Fabrication, Optical Systems, Geometrical O We keep the truncated phrase as is. Now Skills: Could be derived from MCC Expectations and maybe from Required Qualifications like communication skills, technological proficiency, etc. But we already have those in Requirements. Could still create Skills section for MCC Expectations items: Adheres to College Code of Conduct; contributes to equitable inclusive environment; maintains technological competencies; commits to philosophy of comprehensive community college; commits to continued professional growth. However some overlap with Requirements. To avoid duplication, maybe we put MCC Expectations under Skills. But we must preserve all substantive information; we can include them there even if overlapping; but better to avoid duplication? The instruction: Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. It doesn't forbid duplication, but we should not lose any info. Duplication is okay but maybe not needed. However we can create Skills section with those items. Let's list MCC Expectations: - Adheres to the College Code of Conduct. - Contributes to, supports, and maintains an equitable, inclusive, and collaborative College environment. - Maintains technological competencies utilized by the College. - Commits to the philosophy of a comprehensive community college. - Commits to continued professional growth. Now Benefits: statement: "This position is eligible for paid time off and benefits." We'll put as

      inside Benefits section. Schedule: Part-Time (80%). We'll put as

      . Now we need to ensure we don't include empty sections. Let's craft HTML:
