Teaching Assistant Professor of Social Work
for section headings like About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. Use - for any list of duties/requirements/benefits, and
for prose. Do NOT repeat the job title as a heading. Do NOT put Job ID / requisition numbers as headings — fold minor metadata into a short
or drop it. Preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Remove cookie/navigation/legal/EEO/equal-opportunity/scam-warning boilerplate, duplicated lines, and application instructions. IMPORTANT: include a section ONLY when the posting has real, specific content for it — never emit a heading followed by filler/placeholder text (e.g. "commensurate with experience", "not specified", "N/A", "varies", "TBD") and never create Pay/Schedule/Benefits sections unless the posting actually states them. Prefer a few substantive sections over many thin ones.

- Also remove "Current Employees: If you are currently employed..." etc.
We need to preserve all substantive information: duties, responsibilities, qualifications, compensation, benefits, start date, contact info, department, employment type, etc.
We need to decide sections: Likely "About the role" (overview), "Responsibilities", "Qualifications" (maybe split Required and Desirable?), "Benefits", "Pay", "Schedule"? The posting includes schedule: Full-Time 100%, 9-month ongoing appointment. That's schedule info. So we can include Schedule section.
We need to avoid filler. Ensure we don't create sections with placeholder.
We need to output only HTML fragment, no /, no markdown fences.
We'll structure:
About the role
... overview ...
Responsibilities
- ... each responsibility ...
We have multiple responsibility categories: Direct Practicum Program, Curriculum and Program Development, Student Success and Support, Scholarship, Accreditation and Compliance, Other Duties. Could combine into list items.
We need to preserve all specifics: e.g., "Direct Practicum Program (BSW and MSW) Ensure the Practicum Education program remains in compliance with Council on Social Work Education (CSWE) standards.Develop and maintain practicum sites and affiliation agreements.Recruit, train, and mentor qualified practicum supervisors.Oversee and provide support to practicum liaisons, helping to resolve student issues.Maintain students’ practicum education records for licensure.Develop, update, and distribute the MSW Practicum Manual.Contribute to initial CSWE accreditation and subsequent reaccreditation efforts.Develop and continually review practicum courses."
We can split each sentence into separate list items or keep as one? Probably each bullet as a responsibility. We'll break by sentences.
Similarly for Curriculum and Program Development: "Assist with the development of curriculum for both online and in-person teaching and learning to maintain relevance and rigor.Collaborate with faculty to integrate innovative teaching strategies, including academic service-learning, into the curriculum.Support the program adherence to CSWE accreditation standards."
Student Success and Support: "Teach one three-credit course per academic year.Provide academic advising to students enrolled in the MSW program.Support strategies to enhance student recruitment, retention, and graduation rates."
Scholarship: "Contribute to the development of teaching and learning scholarly work consistent with social work program guidelines."
Accreditation and Compliance: "Ensure that the program maintains accreditation by meeting or exceeding the standards set by accrediting bodies such as the Council on Social Work Education (CSWE).Represent the social work program in the community, including partnerships with educational partners, health and human service organizations, advisory boards, and professional associations.Participate in minimum level of department and university service."
Other Duties: "Complete required trainings and professional development as assigned.Other duties as assigned."
We also have earlier "Key Job Responsibilities" list: "May supervise student employees involved in development or delivery of instructionContributes to the strategic development of curriculum and academic content through various mediums to ensure the integrity of the educational mission of the work unitFacilitates classroom, online and/or laboratory instruction, including assessment of student performanceContributes to the development of teaching and learning scholarly work including publications and presentationsCollaborates with department faculty and staff to develop teaching strategies relevant to the disciplineDevelops and designs curriculum and instructional material relevant to a course of instructionAdvises students on academic and career direction within a specific field of study". This seems overlapping with later responsibilities; we should preserve all substantive info, not duplicate? The instruction says preserve ALL substantive information; do NOT invent or summarize away detail. Duplicated lines should be removed. So we need to deduplicate overlapping content. We'll combine unique responsibilities.
Let's list all unique responsibilities from both sections.
From Key Job Responsibilities (first list):
- May supervise student employees involved in development or delivery of instruction
- Contributes to the strategic development of curriculum and academic content through various mediums to ensure the integrity of the educational mission of the work unit

- Contributes to the development of teaching and learning scholarly work including publications and presentations
- Collaborates with department faculty and staff to develop teaching strategies relevant to the discipline

From Direct Practicum Program:

- Develop and maintain practicum sites and affiliation agreements.
- Recruit, train, and mentor qualified practicum supervisors.
- Oversee and provide support to practicum liaisons, helping to resolve student issues.
- Maintain students’ practicum education records for licensure.
- Develop, update, and distribute the MSW Practicum Manual.

From Accreditation and Compliance:

- Participate in minimum level of department and university service.
From Other Duties:
- Complete required trainings and professional development as assigned.
- Other duties as assigned.
Now we need to deduplicate overlapping items. For example, "Contributes to the development of teaching and learning scholarly work including publications and presentations" vs "Contribute to the development of teaching and learning scholarly work consistent with social work program guidelines." Similar but not identical; we can keep both as they add nuance. Also "Support the program adherence to CSWE accreditation standards." appears in Curriculum and Program Development and also in Accreditation and Compliance (ensure program maintains accreditation). Slightly different but we can keep both.
"Develops and designs curriculum and instructional material relevant to a course of instruction" vs "Assist with the development of curriculum for both online and in-person teaching and learning to maintain relevance and rigor." Similar but we keep both.
"Advises students on academic and career direction within a specific field of study" vs "Provide academic advising to students enrolled in the MSW program." Similar but we keep both.
"Facilitates classroom, online and/or laboratory instruction, including assessment of student performance" vs "Teach one three-credit course per academic year." Different.
We'll keep all.

UW-Superior is not an E-Verify employer; therefore, it cannot employ individuals on the STEM OPT extension." This is substantive info about work authorization; we should preserve. It's not a qualification per se but important. Could be placed under Requirements or a separate section like "Eligibility". But we only have allowed headings: About the role, Responsibilities, Requirements, Qualifications, Skills, Benefits, Pay, Schedule. We could put work authorization under Requirements or Qualifications. Probably under Requirements (since it's about eligibility). We'll include as part of Requirements.
