Normal Teaching Load. (1) The Faculty Xxxx shall determine the normal teaching load for the Faculty as a whole and for Members in each Department within the Faculty, following consultations with the Chairs. The normal teaching load shall be determined with due regard to both academic priorities (including but not limited to curricular and enrolment targets), and budgetary and other resource considerations. The teaching load assigned to Faculty Members in each Department shall be appropriate and reasonable for the discipline(s) concerned, with due regard for past practice and the provisions of Clauses 19.01-19.
Normal Teaching Load. The teaching load for full-time instructional Faculty shall be based on the following:
Normal Teaching Load. A. Members of the Association will normally be assigned to an eight-hour work day beginning at 7:00 a.m., five days per week. However, by mutual agreement between the teacher, division leader, and the principal, the 40 hours per week may be configured in alternative arrangements. Principals may require attendance at before school meetings with prior notice. The normal teacher load shall not exceed a yearly average of 30.0 teaching periods per week. Each period shall not exceed 45 minutes in length. The schedule shall consist of nine (9) periods per day. The school calendar shall consist of one hundred eighty-two (182) teacher attendance days for new teachers and one hundred eighty (180) teacher attendance days per school year for all other teachers.
B. Classroom, study halls, cafeteria, and hall duty shall be considered teaching loads.
C. Time granted by administration for extra duty shall be considered teaching time. This shall not include vocational education coordinators, counselors, or anyone else assigned any administrative responsibility during the normal school day.
D. Teaching assignments for full time staff members shall include a minimum preparation time averaging 450 minutes per week and shall not be counted as teaching time. Teachers with less than a full load shall have their minimum preparation time prorated in accordance with their teacher load. This time may include duties such as student assistance, parent conferences, or other tasks assigned by the division leader.
E. Total teaching time exceeding a yearly average of 30.0 periods per week shall be considered additional teacher load.
F. Any teaching assignments, which do not conform to this Article, shall be compensated according to Article V, Section F, unless prior mutual agreement between the parties involved dictates otherwise.
G. On full-day teacher institutes, as designated by the official calendar, teachers will be given 2 hours and 15 minutes (in addition to a 45 minute duty-free lunch) of professional discretionary time. It is understood that teachers will be expected to be in the building attending to work, such as planning and grading.
Normal Teaching Load. In a standalone elementary classroom , the normal teaching load will be established so that each teacher will receive two hundred fifty (250) minutes per week of preparation time. The remainder of the day will be spent in classroom instruction. The normal teaching load in the high school in a seven-period day is five (5) classes, one study hall and a prep period or six (6) classes and a prep period. The prep period will be fifty (50) minutes per day.
Normal Teaching Load. The normal teaching load for each full-time faculty member shall be fifteen (15) contact hours per semester with a maximum of thirty (30) contact hours per academic year. A contact hour is equivalent to fifty (50) minutes of instruction, lecture, or lab.
Normal Teaching Load. In order to meet the new State Requirement of 990 instructional hours per year, the maximum teaching time at the secondary level shall be increased to 240 minutes per day. Teachers shall not be required to teach more than 160 minutes without a lunch break, planning and development period, or an administrative duty. Teachers shall receive a minimum of 240 minutes of planning and development time each week.
Normal Teaching Load. For EUC faculty members in the professorial stream, normal teaching load in a given employment year shall be 2.5 FCEs. A 0.5 FCE of this total is subject to a Research Release Programme (see Appendix A). Normally teaching loads (TL) should reflect the time devoted to teaching students at the graduate and undergraduate levels. In accordance with the terms of Article 18.15(f) of the Collective Agreement, faculty members in the professorial stream will receive a 0.5 FCE teaching load reduction in the first three years of probation in lieu of eligibility for the RRP, without the requirement of meeting the unit-defined criteria for the RRP. The standard FCE credit for a one-term undergraduate or graduate level course is 0.5 FCE and the standard FCE credit for a full-year undergraduate or graduate level courses is 1.0 FCE.2 It is expected that all members of the Faculty will share responsibilities of teaching large courses. Specifically, and when possible, the burden of teaching classes with more than 100 students should rotate after a reasonable period of time so as not to fall on only a small group of faculty members.
1 In the legacy FES, teaching load practice for professorial stream was a full course equivalent of 3.0, with a 1.5 FCE course load and 1.5 FCE load for MES advising and graduate supervision. In the teaching stream, it was a 2.5 FCE course load and a 1.0 FCE advising and supervision. In the legacy Geography unit, the teaching load for professorial stream was 2.5 FCE. 2 There are two exceptions to the standard credit of 0.5 FCE for EUC courses:
(i) GEOG5800 Physical Geography Seminar – 0.25 FCE
(ii) ENVS4001 Placement Course exists in two sections. The first is a full-year Fall/Winter course worth 0.5 FCE. The Summer section is remunerated at 0.25 FCE. Note: summer teaching is subject to articles 18.23 to 18.25 of the Collective Agreement. There are teaching duties required to meet program objectives that are delivered outside of traditional instructor lead courses. The work associated with these assignments will be recognized with the following credit:
1. EU/GEOG 4000 6.0 Honours Thesis. Instructors will receive 0.17 FCE for each honours thesis supervised to completion.
2. EU/GEOG 5011 1.0 Graduate Colloquium (Fall/Winter). Instructor organizing colloquium will receive 0.17 FCE for the colloquium.
3. Integrated undergraduate/graduate courses. Instructors will receive 0.17 extra FCE for teaching 3.0 undergraduate course integrated with a graduate ...
Normal Teaching Load. 1. The normal teaching load at the high school shall be no more than 315 minutes of student contact time which includes passing period.
a. Advisory may be used for individual tutoring, activities, clubs and/or facilitating lessons provided to all teacher related to a content area and clusters.
b. High school MTSS-Advisory teachers will have two (2) days of MTSS instruction. MTSS-Advisors have the flexibility to determine how best to use those other remaining days of the week to meet the needs of their students that they serve.
2. The normal teaching load at the middle school shall be no more than 300 minutes of student contact time.
Normal Teaching Load. 24A.01 The maximum normal teaching load for faculty members shall be two and one-half (2.5) full courses as of July 1, 2005.
Normal Teaching Load. 4.4.1 The normal teaching load shall be 4 3.5 two‐term courses per academic year, or the equivalent thereof, and it shall not exceed 420 315 course calendar hours per academic year.
