  1. Student Titles Workshop Calculating Percentages for Summer TA Appointments

  2. Not all TAships are created equal… • In fall, winter and spring quarters, the maximum workload hours for a 50% position is 220 hours. (Article 31, Section A.1.a.) • In summer, the maximum workload hours for a 50% position is 120 hours. (Article 24, Section A.1.)

  3. Why? • In the academic year, all the quarters are of equal length (i.e., 10 weeks). • In summer, the term has sessions of differing lengths. The contract uses 120 hours as a baseline for a 6 week session.

  4. What if the required duties take more than 120 hours to complete? • The instructor (or other authorized person) can do one of two things: • Reduce the duties so that they fit within the 120 hours, or, • Determine the number of hours needed to complete the required duties and recalculate the percentage of employment.

  5. How? • List all the TA duties related to the summer version of the course. • Quantify each task in terms of the number of minutes/hours needed to complete the task for X number of students. • Add the total number of hours. • Divide the total number of hours by 240 and multiply by 100. (Note: 240 is the total possible workload hours at 100% employment.)
