Formal Classroom Observation. The Adjunct has a right to a regular, fair and consistent formal evaluation process. A formal classroom observation shall be used to evaluate an Adjunct’s performance and effectiveness as an instructor. Formal classroom observations may be conducted by the Department Chairperson, a tenured faculty member, Xxxx, Director, coordinator, manager, or Vice President. Under no circumstances shall bargaining unit members evaluate each other. Individuals designated to perform formal classroom observations must receive training prior to conducting such observations. The Adjunct shall be notified in writing two weeks in advance of the intent to evaluate. Written notification may be made by email. Time and place shall be mutually agreed upon by the Adjunct and person conducting the observation. For non-probationary adjuncts, classroom observations will be conducted annually, not to exceed one class per year.

Each classroom observation will be a minimum of 50 minutes in duration. Online classes with synchronous sessions will be observed during one of their synchronous sessions like a regular classroom observation. For asynchronous online classes one module will be observed instead of one class session. For hybrid classes, the adjunct will choose whether to have one class session (in person or online) or one module observed. Following the completion of the written observation, the Department Chairperson, tenured faculty member, Xxxx, Director, manager, coordinator, or Vice President shall meet with the Adjunct Faculty member to review the observation. Observation feedback shall be individualized. The form in Appendix A will be used for formal classroom observations.
