Instructional Related Assigned Time Codes
- For classes with census date enrollment of between 75 and 120 and exceptional workload, a graduate assistant or student assistant may be allocated.
- For classes with census date enrollment of over 120, a graduate assistant, a student assistant, or an additional 3 WTU may be assigned.
Assignment of graduate assistants is a preferable way of handling such large class loads, but it is recognized that qualified graduate assistants are not always available.
In no case shall a faculty member be granted assigned WTU for more than one class with excess enrollments.
New Preparations
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for preparation of courses never before taught by that particular faculty member, if courses actually taught include two or more such new preparations.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU equal to course or supervision overload earned in a prior fiscal year provided that calendar considerations so necessitate and the faculty member has not been present for the full preceding academic year.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for activities involving instruction and evaluation, which include such activities as modularized instruction, self-paced instruction, team teaching/cluster courses, thematic projects, open laboratory, sponsored experimental learning or other community activities, writing adjunct, mediated instruction (involving computers, television, and/or other media devices), and peer instruction. These activities typically do not involve a single instructor regularly meeting a group of students in an assigned classroom or laboratory setting.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for activities involving in-service training for K-12 school personnel. Typically, the activities are provided on the school site using a variety of instructional modes and do not necessarily involve an instructor regularly meeting a group of students in an assigned classroom or laboratory setting on a campus.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for activities that give primary emphasis to the evaluation of a student's knowledge and skills rather than upon the instructional process by which the knowledge and skills are acquired. Such activities include:
- Credit by evaluation of prior experiential learning (e.g., based upon evaluation of a portfolio of materials).
- Credit by examination (where the examination is generated and evaluated in whole or in part by the campus), including comprehensive and challenge examinations.
The characteristics of evaluation activities that should be treated as part of the regular instructional program involve 1) regularly enrolled students, and 2) a substantial effort on the part of the faculty member to perform any of the following tasks:
- Interview and make a preliminary assessment of the student's background.
- Counsel the student regarding preparation for the evaluation.
- Selection or preparation of the examination or assistance in preparation of a student portfolio.
- Evaluation of the portfolio or evaluation of the student response to the examination.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for special graduate student testing duties, in particular for conducting comprehensive examinations for master's degree candidates and examinations in fulfillment of foreign language requirements.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for participation in a team teaching effort. The total assigned and earned WTU associated with a team-taught course may not exceed the WTU generated by the course multiplied by the number of faculty members teaching the course. In addition, no individual faculty member may be given more WTU, both earned and assigned, than the course generates.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for program and tape production for instructional television.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for liaison duties among multiple sections of the same course
- A faculty member may be given assigned time for development and implementation of experimental programs involving:
- Instructional television
- Computer assisted instruction
- Other innovations in instruction
b. A faculty member may be given assigned time for documented research evaluations which are demonstrably related to the instructional functions and programs of the college.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for his services related to college clinics, study skill centers, farms, art galleries, and other campus institutions and facilities which are ancillary to the instruction program.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for carrying an excessive advising load due to a relatively high proportion of part-time faculty in his department.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for carrying a greater than normal share of departmental or school advising responsibilities.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for services as departmental graduate adviser.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for participation over and above normal levels in such areas as curriculum, personnel, budget, library, audio-visual, and selection committees at the department, school or college level.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for membership in or liaison to special committees whose activities have significant bearing on the instructional programs of the college, or the CSU system at large.
- Includes all-university assigned time.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for special individual or committee-related curriculum planning, development and redevelopment activities.
- A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for development of special tests for credit by examination.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for accreditation responsibilities.
A faculty member may be given assigned WTU for duties related to planning of instructional facilities.
Each CFA campus Chapter President and each of four CFA statewide officers (President, Vice President, Secretary, Treasurer) shall be granted a reduction in workload, without loss of compensation, of up to three (3) WTU on a semester campus, or four (4) WTU on a quarter campus, per academic term.
