Full-Time Instructional Contact Hours. An instructional load for full-time academic employees is an annual average of 15 instructional contact hours per week. A quarterly load greater than 19 instructional contact hours per week may only be assigned with the permission of the academic employee. An exception is permitted in the case of science and engineering faculty teaching courses that are seven instructional contact hours where the faculty may have an assignment of up to 21 instructional contact hours during one quarter per academic year in which the faculty is teaching a seven contact hour course. If a course involves combined sections, as defined in section 6.21, then each instructional hour taught in front of combined sections will be considered as 1.5 contact hours. For example, a lab science course that has been combined will receive 1.5 contact hours for each hour of combined lecture, but will receive non-adjusted contact hours for the separate labs. [Example: a double section of CHEM& 121 consists of 8 total contact hours, 4 hours of which are combined lectures. For full-time faculty this would be treated as (4 contact hours of combined lecture x 150%) + (4 additional contact hours for lab) = 10 contact hours] Online or hybrid courses/labs are considered to have the same contact hours as person- to- person contact hours in the classroom or other traditional means. If an academic employee’s annual average instructional contact hour load is greater than 15 contact hours per week, the employee will be compensated for the additional contact hours as a moonlight, as discussed in section 4.80 (d). This additional load compensation will be issued during the quarter that the moonlight occurs.
Full-Time Instructional Contact Hours. An instructional load for full-time academic employees shall be an annual average of 15 instructional contact hours per week. A quarterly load greater than 19 instructional contact hours per week may only be assigned with the permission of the academic employee. On-line or hybrid courses/labs shall be considered to have the same contact hours as person-to- person contact hours in the classroom or other traditional means. If an academic employee’s annual average instructional contact hour load is greater than 15 contact hours per week, the employee will be compensated for the additional contact hours as a moonlight, as discussed in section 4.80 (d). This additional load compensation will be issued during the quarter that the moonlight occurs.
Full-Time Instructional Contact Hours. An instructional load for full-time academic employees is an annual average of fifteen (15) instructional contact hours per week. A quarterly load greater than nineteen (19) instructional contact hours per week may only be assigned with the permission of the academic employee.
(1) An exception is permitted in the case of science and engineering faculty teaching courses that are seven instructional contact hours where the faculty may have an assignment of up to twenty-one (21) instructional contact hours during one quarter per academic year in which the faculty is teaching a seven-contact hour course.
(2) If a course involves combined sections, as defined in section 6.21, then each instructional hour taught in front of combined sections will be considered as one and a half (1.5) contact hours. For example, a lab science course that has been combined will receive one and a half (1.5) contact hours for each hour of combined lecture, but will receive non- adjusted contact hours for the separate labs.
(3) Online or hybrid courses/labs are considered to have the same contact hours as person- to- person contact hours in the classroom or other traditional means.
(4) If an academic employee’s annual average instructional contact hour load is greater than fifteen (15) contact hours per week, the employee will be compensated for the additional contact hours as a moonlight, as discussed in section 4.80 (d).
(5) This additional load compensation will be issued during the quarter that the moonlight occurs.
