APPROVED BY:

Kentucky State University Board of Regents Office of the Provost/Vice President for Academic Affairs Office of Online Education

EFFECTIVE DATE:

REVISED FROM:

Section 2.11 of the Faculty Handbook

The purpose of the KYSU Online Faculty Workload Policy is to define the relationship between full-time faculty contracts and online courses (i.e., courses taught in the online modality through KYSU Online). This policy also preserves the availability of full-time faculty for the residential programs of Kentucky State University despite their involvement in KYSU Online.

The online programs are supported by two faculty types: full-time faculty (i.e., full-time residential faculty) and adjunct faculty. To ensure that an adequate number of full-time faculty are available for the residential academic programs, administrative assignments, and committee service, full-time faculty may not use online course load (i.e., courses delivered in the online modality in the academic programs of KYSU Online) to fulfill their full-time teaching requirements. Full-time faculty must fulfill their

contractual teaching obligations with courses delivered in the traditional, hybrid, or virtual modalities. See the KYSU Online Course Modality Policy (1.3.14) for a description of each modality. The Provost must approve exceptions to this policy in advance.

Even though full-time faculty must fulfill their full-time teaching obligations with courses in the traditional, hybrid, and virtual modalities, they are permitted to supplement their full-time workload with KYSU Online courses. The online course load is handled separately from the full-time contract. See the KYSU Online Faculty Workload Procedures (1.3.15) for details.

The procedures outlined in KYSU Online Faculty Workload Procedures (1.3.15) will be used to measure and track faculty workload. These procedures support the needs of KYSU Online to accommodate a broader range of faculty work and types. The procedures also accommodate KYSU Online's use of subterms in addition to the standard semester-length terms of the residential programs.

See the definitions of full-time faculty in the Faculty Handbook and the KYSU Online Faculty Handbook.

See the definitions of adjunct faculty in the Faculty Handbook and the KYSU Online Faculty Handbook.
