Standard Teaching Assignment Clause Samples

The Standard Teaching Assignment clause defines the typical teaching responsibilities and workload expected of an instructor under the agreement. It outlines the number of courses, credit hours, or contact hours the instructor is required to teach during a specified period, such as a semester or academic year, and may specify the types of courses or levels (e.g., undergraduate or graduate) included. This clause ensures both parties have a clear understanding of teaching expectations, helping to prevent misunderstandings and disputes regarding workload.
Standard Teaching Assignment. The standard teaching assignment for all full-time tenured, and tenure-track faculty is defined as fifteen (15) credit hours in the academic year. In the first two years of a tenure-track appointment, the standard teaching assignment is twelve (12) credit hours in the academic year. The standard teaching assignment for Limited-Term faculty is defined as eighteen (18) credit hours. These credit hours may further be described to include contact hours in classes, labs, clinic, studio and required tutorials. Each hour a class meets per week of term is defined as one contact hour. Each hour of a studio, clinical or laboratory, which is supplementary to the classroom activity, shall be considered to be equivalent to one-half hour of classroom activity. Each hour of scheduled tutorial or problem session shall be considered equivalent to one-third hour of classroom activity. Faculty must be present and teaching for the period for which they are claiming teaching credit. When a Lab Instructor is assigned to a contact period, the professor shall claim no teaching credit for that course, and cannot claim teaching credit unless the professor is present and teaching. The Chair in consultation with the ▇▇▇▇ and Faculty member will assign teaching credit taking into consideration whether there are bona fide reasons for the professor to be present and teaching in the lab (eg., the assigned lab instructor is new to the course, the labs are being substantially revamped, additional expertise is needed in the lab to provide assistance to students, etc.)
