Professional Learning and Salary Lane Increments Sample Clauses

Professional Learning and Salary Lane Increments. 1. Courses (a) Members of the bargaining unit, who are taking courses from a college or university as part of an approved degree program, may accrue credits toward a salary lane change without prior approval of the Superintendent. (b) Members taking a college or university course, which are not part of an approved degree program, shall seek prior approval from the Superintendent. Said approval shall not unreasonably be denied. (c) Members may audit a college or university class with the approval of the Superintendent. One such audited class may be used toward each salary lane increment. Audited courses are awarded district credit at one credit less than the course otherwise would have awarded. (d) During the terms of this Agreement, the parties agree to continue to pilot Massive Online Open Classes (MOOC). Members of the bargaining unit may take advantage of virtual learning opportunities, such as MOOC, that, with the approval of the Superintendent, may be applied towards lane change. A Professional Growth Committee, made up of Association representatives and administrators, will establish and review policies and procedures for overseeing virtual learning courses. This committee will issue a recommendation, prior to the end of the three year pilot, to either continue, amend or discontinue virtual learning as it applies to increment credit used for lane changes. During the pilot program, the district will award no more than six credits (a minimum of two 36- hours courses). These increment credits may only be used to advance one lane. In order to receive district credit, Members must provide the Professional Growth Committee with an acceptable product (i.e., a presentation, curriculum, unit plans, etc.) in addition to meeting the course requirements.
