Roy Jensen, VP Professional Affairs
The Faculty Association is in the process of revising the ‘Service
Workload Guidelines’ document, which provided faculty with a list of
common service activities and proposes a method for
calculating the percent service of a member’s workload. This is
provided to faculty to promote consistency across MacEwan.
Service Workload Guidelines
The 2009 service guidelines, which provides a table of service hours, were developed from your
input. We would appreciate you reviewing the table and advising
us if the listed times are still consistent with what you actually do.
If there are additional activities you believe should be on the list,
please advise us of this as well.
Please provide your suggestions by visiting the discussion forum called workload or
email to JensenRH@MacEwan.ca.
Scholarly Activity Workload
Faculty have also inquired about a ‘Scholarly Activity Workload Guidelines’
document for quantifying scholarly activity.
We realize that the diverse nature of scholarly activity at MacEwan will make a
university-wide system difficult to prepare. However, a starting point
is to collect information on how departments quantifies scholarly
activity.
We would greatly appreciate details on how your department
quantifies scholarly activity and we will begin developing guidelines.
You can provide your suggestions in the discussion forum called workload or
email to JensenRH@MacEwan.ca.
