Trang 22019-2020 Flex Obligation for Full-time Faculty
• There is a total 30-hour obligation for tenured full-time faculty, a 40-hour obligation for second year tenure track
faculty, and a 50-hour obligation for first year tenure track faculty (usually completed in Nexus)
• There are 5 hours of Mandatory Flex each semester for a total of 10 mandatory hours per year
• Full-time “A” contract faculty may choose to complete their Flex obligation over the entire calendar year, July 1
through June 30
• Flex credit cannot be “banked” or “made up” from one academic year to another
Spring 2020 Flex Obligation for Part-time “C” and “AC” Faculty
Part-time faculty have a Flex obligation that is directly related to compensation and the number of instructional days in the semester Flex obligation is based on the academic calendar, more specifically to the day of the week on which classes begin and end
Consequently, the Flex obligation is adjusted each semester The semester start or end date can prevent a full 16-week
semester of class meetings Part-time Flex obligation applies only to adjunct faculty who are teaching face-to-face, full-term
(16-week) classes (it does not apply to online, short-term or late start classes)
For Spring 2020, part-time instructors (and full-time faculty on AC contract) teaching a semester length, face-to-face class, have a flex obligation that is equal to the number of instructional hours taught in a week on Sundays, Mondays, Fridays and
Saturdays In short, if you teach a full term, face-to-face class any day mentioned here, the number of hours of your flex
obligation are equal to the number of hours you teach on those days in one week So if you teach 3 hours on Monday, and
3 hours on Wednesday, you only owe 3 hours If you only teach on Tuesday or Wednesday, you do not have a flex
obligation for spring
Flex activities must be completed during the semester they are required “C” and “A/C” contract faculty may not bank hours and use them in a different semester
Note: non-instructional faculty (i.e., librarians and counselors) with no unit-bearing teaching load do not have a Flex
obligation

SP20-900: It’s Better to Lead Than Lag - How Leading Indicators can Support Making Improvements in Student Success
9:00am-12:00pm The DVC Data Coaching Program and the Research, Planning, and Evaluation Committee is
pleased to present: “It's Better to Lead Than Lag: How Leading Indicators Can Support Making Improvements in Student Success.”
Brad C Phillips with the Institute for Evidenced-Based Change (IEBC) will present research-based models and actionable approaches for using data strategically at community colleges to increase completion rates and student success Brad’s work draws from the fields of psychology,
neuroscience, and behavioral economics to show leaders and administrators can build good habits for engaging with data constructively The workshop is designed to help administrators and faculty identify leading indicators that CCCs can affect and monitor before student failure occurs
The workshop will also help educators make better use of common sources of data, clarify problems to be solved, match research-based interventions to problems, and evaluate results
The workshop will incorporate strategies for college personnel to engage with data more effectively by integrating student stories into presentations and embedding these discussions into existing meetings and routines The content is based on two decades of experience working with colleges across the country, which is captured the textbook Creating a Data-Informed Culture in Community Colleges The workshop will be a valuable contribution to ongoing conversations about appropriate use of information to improve student outcomes A continental breakfast will
be served starting at 8:45am

SP20-610: Creative Approaches to Student Equity
10:00am-11:00am For this activity, I would like to present the results of my engagement with educators across multiple fields in the Arts and Humanities (I will be presenting at an international
conference on this subject and gleaning knowledge from other presenters in January)
involving problems and solutions around inclusivity in the classroom While my specific area
of expertise is Art, I believe this could apply to faculty across all disciplines My plan is to
offer a PowerPoint presentation with bulleted points addressing specific areas in which
students encounter issues with feeling a sense of separation from the experiences of
others, and then address possible strategies for making them feel more connected with
both their fellow students and their instructors I will provide a handout with questions
related to our topic, and facilitate a discussion that relates our experiences and insights to
plans for actionable strategies for our teaching practices Based on everyone's responses
