Teaching Programs Clause Samples

Teaching Programs. 1. The preparation of teacher programs shall be the responsibility of the Department Chairperson in consultation with the faculty member and subject to the limits established by the seniority provisions of this Agreement. A faculty member shall be notified of his program at least thirty (30) days before the end of the preceding semester by being presented a written and dated copy of said program. Changes in a faculty member’s program may be made if emergencies arise, and such changes shall also be in writing and dated and signed by the Department Chairperson. In making the necessary changes due to emergencies, the Department Chairperson shall make every effort to consult with the affected member in the interest of arriving at the best solution for all concerned. 2. Faculty members shall be present on campus for all professional duties and obligations, including classes, departmental meetings, faculty meetings called by the College President or the Chancellor, and student conference hours. Each faculty member shall schedule a minimum of seven (7) hours per week outside the classroom for student conferences and student academic advisement. Each lecturer or teacher of an overtime class shall schedule one (1) student conference hour per week for each class. These conference hours shall be scheduled to provide maximum convenience for students who wish to confer with a faculty member. Faculty members who have released time shall have their student conference hours and student academic advisement hours reduced in proportion to the reduction in their teaching load. 3. Every effort shall be made to schedule regular teaching load classes within a six hour work day and to avoid scheduling more than two classes consecutively. Where exceptions to the six hour limit per day are necessary, no faculty member’s accumulative daily assignments may exceed thirty hours per week for a regular program. 4. No faculty member shall be required to teach on more than five (5) days per week for his regular program. A faculty member who has no scheduled classes or other duties, as specified in paragraph 2 above, shall not be required to be present at his College on such days. Whenever possible, a faculty member’s program shall be arranged so as to allow him to pursue professional activities which relate to or enhance his academic effectiveness.

  • Training Programs All employees shall successfully complete all necessary training prior to being assigned work (e.g., all employees will complete health and safety training prior to being assigned to task). Nothing in this Article or provision shall constitute a waiver of either party’s bargaining obligations or defenses. The Employer still has an obligation to notify and bargain changes in terms and conditions of employment with the exclusive representative.

  • Teaching Load 11-1 The parties recognize that the number of students, the number of preparations, and the amount of planning time are related to student performance. 11-2 CLASS SIZE 11-2-1 The parties recognize that class size is related to economics and that reduction of class size is faced with fiscal constraints. The parties further recognize that it is not feasible at this time to set general numerical limitations upon class size because of physical space available, special programs, special student needs, attendance area variances, differences in scheduling systems, busing, and because of other variable causes affecting class size. Nevertheless, the parties shall make reasonable effort to maintain class size at reasonable, workable, and educationally effective levels in all situations. 11-3 TEACHER LOAD 11-3-1 Teaching load shall be defined as the number of separate class preparations that a teacher has per school day as delineated in the course description guide.

  • TEACHING HOURS AND TEACHING LOAD Section 1 Work Day For the applicable agreement period, the normal work day will be seven and one-quarter (7 ¼) hours including arrival time fifteen (15) minutes before and departure time (15) minutes after the students’ school day. The normal work day will include uninterrupted prep time. The Building Principal, as authorized by the Superintendent, upon request of a teacher or group of teachers, may waive the requirement to remain fifteen (15) minutes after the school day for a specific day or days. It is recognized; however, that the proper performance of their duties may, on occasion, require these persons to work longer than the normal work day, i.e. for conferences, faculty meetings, department meetings, etc. Therefore, “mandatory meetings will occur two times per month and be no longer than 90 minutes in length, inclusive of the additional 15 minutes beyond the scheduled student school day. A schedule of the meetings will be distributed by June 30th of the previous school year, but may be changed at the discretion of the Principal with 48 hours’ notice.” Teachers will also remain at school after the fifteen (15) minutes described above, during one (1) day each calendar week for such periods of time as is necessary to provide students extra help, and/or to meet with parents or guardians, concerning the progress of their children or wards. No teacher shall be required to work more than a normal seven and one- quarter (7 ¼) hour day, including fifteen (15) minutes before and (15) minutes after the students’ school day, which will include uninterrupted prep time; this provision does not apply to other contractually agreed upon time and meetings. Should state law require a longer instructional day, or more days, the teachers shall work the added time and the parties shall immediately commence impact bargaining on the issue. This article does not purport to cover the arrival and departure time of teachers involved in special assignments. Section 2 Other Personnel Personnel other than classroom teachers will work at their assigned tasks for the length of the regular teachers' work day. The exact daily schedule will be worked out on an individual basis between the Administration and the employee with notification to the Association. Instructional Coaches are required to work an additional five (5) days at their per diem rate, beyond the work year for a total of 189 days. These days will be determined prior to the start of the new school year and at the discretion of the Superintendent and the Chief Academic Officer.
