Load Hour Document For Free

Full time equivalency for Supplemental Faculty can be calculated by taking the total teaching credit hours (which are generally equivalent to the credit value of the course(s) taught) for each Supplemental Faculty and dividing by 12. A broadly accepted standard for a full-time teaching load is 12 hours.

If an adjunct math faculty member is teaching a 4 credit-hour curriculum course, and is asked to teach a 10 contact hour adult education or basic skills math course, the college would calculate the assignments as 23 work hours per week (4 credit hours x 2 + 10 contact hours x 1.5 = 23).

For each course (three credit hours), the university estimates it's about 10 hours of work a week. So teaching three courses is about 30 hours of work per week.

A contact hour is a measure that represents an hour of scheduled instruction given to students. A semester credit hour is normally granted for satisfactory completion of one 50-minute session (contact hour) of classroom instruction per week for a semester of not less than fifteen weeks.

An adjunct instructor is a part-time faculty member who is hired on a contractual basis. They may teach for only a few semesters before they return to their industry full time. Per semester, they usually teach a few courses on introductory or general subjects.

A contact hour is defined as 1 hour in contact with the students per semester. ii. i.e.: 3 contact hours = 3 hours per week per 15-week semester. b. Hourly Timesheet ? Adjunct Faculty are paid for all other work on an hourly basis by submitting clock hours into a timesheet.

Adjunct professors are technically part-time professors who work per credit hour, with 12 hours per semester being the typical limit. They usually teach in a specialized field of expertise.
