The School of Pharmacy embraces the Instructional Responsibilities
Policy developed by the UW Administration and Senate Executive Committee.
For purposes of the School of Pharmacy guidelines on this policy,
faculty members would be expected to have classroom teaching activities
commensurate with departmental teaching loads and requirements of
the University. Classroom teaching activities would include:
Serving as sole instructor of a course that meets at regularly
scheduled times throughout the quarter.
Teaching in team-taught courses in which all instructors are available
to students to provide help and evaluate student performance. This
can include:
Lectures and/or facilitation of small group discussions, and/or
shared responsibility for organizing the content and format of
a course.
Organizing a departmental or program seminar series that students
can take for academic credit.
Participating in a journal club or a topics course that students
can take for academic credit.
Instructing groups of graduate students and/or postdoctoral fellows
and other laboratory personnel in research techniques in a course
that can be taken for academic credit.
Instructing groups of pharmacy students, residents or fellows in
regularly scheduled or formal practicum, clerkship, residency or
fellowship training.
In special circumstances, taking the initiative in curriculum development
and preparation of new courses.
The percent time/effort in classroom teaching for any quarter will
be linked to the percent of salary support a faculty member receives
from state funds for teaching. Some faculty members, who receive
partial support from research grants throughout an academic year,
may have greater than required teaching responsibilities in some
quarters to best coordinate the scheduling of sedquenced courses.
We propose to link their classroom teaching to the level of support
from state funds during a given academic year as follows:
