Independent Study Assignments Sample Clauses

Independent Study Assignments. Independent study assignments shall be defined as the faculty member’s supervision and teaching a student of a course that has been approved by the college’s regular course approval procedures, or shall be defined as the tutoring of a CBE (Competency Based Education) student. Such supervision and teaching has no scheduled formal lectures or labs and is available by arrangement with an instructor. Independent study assignments may be done as a part of the faculty member’s semester load or as overload. Because independent study is student initiated, independent study assignments shall not be subject to the summer rotation language contained in Article 10, Section 4. A faculty member who supervises/teaches an independent study course shall have his/her workload calculated as one-twelfth (1/12) of one credit for each student credit or CBE unit. A student credit shall be defined as one student enrolled for one credit. Independent study may not be used to substitute for course offerings, unless agreed to in writing by the faculty member and administration. Copies of such agreement when the number of students exceeds four (4) students per course per semester will be provided to the MSCF Chapter grievance representative and the State MSCF in a timely manner. A grievance regarding this Subdivision may be initiated at Step 2. The time limit for any such grievance will begin when written notice is received by either the MSCF Chapter grievance representative or the State MSCF.

A student credit shall be defined as one student enrolled for one credit. Once the credit-value of the independent-study assignment has been determined, for workload purposes the assignment shall also be given a contact-hour value. The contact-hour value shall be determined according to the applicable formula for independent-study assignments listed in Appendix G, “Schedule of Assignments.” Independent study may not be used to substitute for course offerings, unless agreed to in writing by the faculty member and administration. Copies of such agreement when the number of students exceeds four (4) students per course per semester will be provided to the MSCF Chapter grievance representative and the State MSCF in a timely manner.

  • SPECIAL TEACHING ASSIGNMENTS A. Assignments for the Adult Education, Driver Education and Summer School Program will be made by the Board on the basis of preference to teachers possessing permanent teaching certificates regularly employed in the district during the normal school year.

  • Teaching Assignment For teaching faculty, the teaching assignment will be one or a combination of programs, courses, or student originated studies offerings (all of which are collectively referred to as “academic offerings” below). For full-time faculty the normal teaching assignment will be a program. For part-time faculty the normal assignment is either a program and/or course(s), depending on the terms of their contract. In addition, faculty may support individual learning contracts.

Where the length of the long term supply assignment is not known in advance, a projected length must be determined at the start of the assignment in order for the appropriate allocation of sick leave/short term disability leave to occur. If a change is made to the length of the assignment, an adjustment will be made to the allocation and applied retroactively.
