Plant Science Instructor (Part-Time Faculty Pool) Madera Community College
for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). We have Salary and Benefits content. Could put under Benefits heading. Pay maybe not explicit numbers. We'll include Benefits.
Also we have sections: Essential Functions of Position (that's Responsibilities). Minimum Qualifications (Requirements/Qualifications). Desirable Qualifications (maybe Skills or Qualifications). There's also About the role? Not explicit but we have introductory paragraphs about equity-minded etc. Could be About the role. Also there is Additional Information About The Position and About The College etc. Might be extra but we need to preserve all substantive info. However we should avoid duplication and boilerplate. The "Additional Information About The Position" includes Madera Community College About The College etc. That's substantive info about college. Could be placed under About the College maybe not a standard heading but we could use About the role? The instruction says prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones. We could combine college description into About the role or maybe a separate About the College heading not in list but we must use only those headings? It says use for section headings (e.g. About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule). It gives examples but not exclusive? Likely we should stick to those headings. So we need to map content to those headings.
We have:
- About the role: could include the introductory equity-minded statements, mission, vision, values, college description, etc. That's substantive.
- Responsibilities: Essential Functions of Position (list of duties).
- Requirements/Qualifications: Minimum Qualifications.
- Skills: Desirable Qualifications (these are skills/qualifications). Could be Skills.
- Benefits: Salary and Benefits section.
We should not include Pay or Schedule unless present. Not present.
We must not repeat job title as heading. So no h3 with "Plant Science Instructor". Good.
We must not include metadata like Posting Number, Campus Location, Start Date etc. Those are minor metadata; we can drop them or fold into short p. The instruction: "do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it." So we could include a short p with posting details like Campus Location, Start Date? But they said drop minor metadata. Safer to drop them. We must preserve ALL substantive information; do not invent or summarize away detail. So we need to keep all the descriptive text about equity-minded, mission, vision, values, college description, responsibilities list, minimum qualifications, desirable qualifications, salary and benefits. We must remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. So we need to strip out things like "State Center Community College District is an equal opportunity employer..." etc. Also "Additional Information Continuous Recruitment..." duplicates. Also "Selection Procedure" etc. Also "Please see Special Instructions for more details." etc. Also "Bookmark this Posting Print Preview | Apply for this Job". Also "Skip to Main Content HomeSearch JobsJob AlertsLog In /Create AccountHelpHuman Resources Minimum Qualifications Equivalency Process Salary Schedules Board Policies Admin Regulations CCC RegistryFAQsContact Us". All that is boilerplate. We need to output only HTML fragment. Let's extract substantive sections: From the posting: - Introductory paragraph after "Plant Science Instructor (Part-Time Faculty Pool) Madera Community College": Actually after title there is "Please see Special Instructions for more details." then "Continuous Recruitment ..." then "Posting Details Announcement Information Posting Number Title ..." then "Campus Location Madera Community College Start Date". Then "Essential Functions of Position At Madera Community College we value the ability to serve students from a broad range of cultural heritages, socioeconomic backgrounds, genders, abilities and orientations.

Madera Community College is a Hispanic-Serving Institution, reflecting the great responsibility that the College has to the educational attainment and economic well-being of the surrounding community. The successful candidate will join a college dedicated to the students it serves." That's a lot of substantive info about equity, mission, student demographics. Good. Then: "Providing instruction in Plant Science on the Madera Community College campus and/or at off-site community campus locations, the instructor will be responsible for:" followed by list of duties. Then "Minimum Qualifications All candidates must have evidence of responsiveness to and understanding of the diverse academic, socioeconomic, cultural, disability, gender identity, sexual orientation, and ethnic backgrounds of community college students, as these factors relate to the need for equity-minded practice within the classroom; and Bachelor’s degree or higher and two years of directly related professional experience; orAssociate degree and six years of directly related professional experience; orA valid California Community College Credential; orThe equivalent education and/or experience (requires an equivalency).
