Classroom Faculty. Except as noted in Section 4.7.4, the work week will consist of five (5) consecutive days (typically Monday through Friday), with a minimum average of twenty-five (25) formula hours per week on campus consisting of classroom (15 hours), office hour (5 hours) and college service (average of 5 hours) over the course of the fall and spring semesters. Within the compressed academic year, the total office hours must account for eleven
Classroom Faculty. A full load for a full-time faculty member shall be 15 Lecture Hour Equivalents (LHE). The LHE for each assignment shall be the product of the weekly teacher hours and the load factor. Load factors for all credit courses are listed in Appendix H, which is available in the Office of Academic Affairs, department offices, the District’s website and the office of the Association. This Section may be reopened by mutual agreement in order to add new classes to Appendix H. When a new course is approved, the District shall assign load based on past practice. Upon request, the Association has the option to discuss the load factor to be assigned to the course. Nothing in this section or Agreement shall require the District to reach mutual agreement with the Association prior to offering a new course. Load factors have been assigned to classes on the assumption that the weekly hours assigned to the teacher (WTH) are equal to the weekly student contact hours. Exceptions to this general rule are indicated on the load factor list. Under the compressed calendar, the weekly contact hours increase to 16.0 (e.g., a three hour class with a load factor of 1.0 will have 3.2 weekly contact hours). The total semester hours of teaching are the same under the traditional 18 week per semester calendar and the compressed calendar. Assignments in Counseling, Disabled Students Program, EOPS, the Library, the LRC, Psychological Services, the Student Health Program, service in a position placed on the Added Responsibility Schedule, and any other assignments which do not involve meeting regularly scheduled classes shall have a load factor of .500. Under the compressed calendar, this may result in scheduled hours of 32 hours per week, and schedules may be flexed to meet the needs of both the District and the faculty member, but the annual schedule shall not exceed the 1,080 scheduled hours that would have been scheduled under the traditional 18 week per semester calendar. It is not the intent of this paragraph that thirty-two hours of student contact per week be scheduled for an individual faculty member. Schedules, including but not limited to student contact, meetings, and preparation time, shall be authorized by the appropriate administrator after consultation with the faculty member.
Classroom Faculty. 18.6.1.1.1 Student Evaluation Forms shall be administered in a number of sections (classes) taught by the Unit Member during the semester/term equated at not less than forty (40) percent of the sections assigned as Part of Load for the semester.
18.6.1.1.2 The sections and class times for which Student Evaluation Forms are to be administered shall be selected by the Unit Member.
18.6.1.1.3 Student Evaluation Forms shall be administered and collected by a faculty member selected by the Unit Member being evaluated in such manner as will ensure the integrity and confidentiality of the process. The Unit Member shall leave the classroom prior to the administration of the evaluation forms.
18.6.1.1.4 The administration of student evaluations for online/hybrid classes taught by the Unit Member shall be in accordance with established campus standards for the conduct of online-hybrid classes.
Classroom Faculty. For each semester in which evaluation is to be conducted in the first and second years, Student Evaluation Forms shall be administered in all sections (classes) taught by the Probationary Unit Member. For evaluations in the third and fourth years, Student Evaluation Forms shall be administered in a number of sections (classes) taught by the Probationary Unit Member for the semester of evaluation, equated at not less than forty (40) percent of the sections assigned for the semester as selected by the Tenure Review Committee.
Classroom Faculty. Except as noted in Section 4.7.4, the work week will consist of five (5) consecutive days (typically Monday through Friday), with a minimum average of twenty-five (25) formula hours per week on campus consisting of classroom (15 hours), office hour (5 hours) and college service (average of 5 hours) over the course of the fall and spring semesters. Within the compressed academic year, the total office hours must account for eleven (11) hours that would not occur if only one (1) office hour was scheduled for each day of the academic year.
4.7.2.1 College service is directed and scheduled by the individual faculty member and the allotted time may accordingly vary over the semester.
4.7.2.2 Full-time faculty will schedule one (1) office hour for each
Classroom Faculty. 5.5.1.1 Each classroom faculty member shall have five (5) student/teacher conference hours per week. A Unit Member who has less than a full-time teaching load shall have a pro-rata number of student/teacher conference hours.
5.5.1.2 Unit Members teaching online education courses may schedule one (1) virtual office hour per week for each online education course taught. These office hours shall be in lieu of in-person office hours and will reduce the number of in-person office hours required accordingly. Virtual office hours may be conducted either on or off campus. As with all office hours, the days/times, and locations shall be published, and will be offered in such a way as to afford students access to instructors that is predictable.
Classroom Faculty. Classroom faculty may be assigned a hybrid class to meet the “on-ground” requirement of section C.13.3 of the contract. With regards to on- ground or hybrid courses, current faculty schedules established by deans and the office of instruction through existing scheduling practices, will remain unchanged. After approval of this agreement, if any additional on-ground sections are added to the spring schedule to meet student need, the District will make every effort to assign those sections to faculty members (full-time or associate) who agree to accept an additional on-ground assignment.
Classroom Faculty. Except as noted in 4.7.4.1, 4.7.4.2, and 4.7.4.3, the work week will consist of five (5) consecutive days (typically Monday through Friday), with a minimum of twenty-five (25) hours per week on campus with the following exception. Both online courses and the online office hour shall be counted toward the 25- hours. Full-time faculty will schedule one (1) office hour for each 0.2 FTE of regular load instruction. One (1) office hour per day shall be scheduled on all days when classes are scheduled and total less than six (6) hours for that given day and count as part of the 25-hour work week. Office hours that are not held on those days longer than six (6) hours must be rescheduled on another day. Allied Health faculty may schedule one (1) office hour per day concurrently within clinical labs; however, at least two (2) office hours per week must be scheduled separately. Assignments on Saturday will attempt to accommodate religious convictions and/or observances. Assignments on Sunday will be by mutual consent.
4.7.2.1 When faculty members are teaching approved interactive television and/or online delivered courses as published in the college schedule for at least 20% of a full-time teaching load, up to one (1) “online” office hour may be held off campus. Online office hour format, e-mail address, expectations as to response time, etc., shall be included in the course syllabus. Quality assurance will be through the faculty performance review process (Article 8).
