Guidelines for College Now Instructors
1. Submit a CN Instructor Information Sheet to the JCCC Community Outreach office and insure that information is updated as needed. 2. Provide all CN students a JCCC
Course Syllabus at the beginning of each CN course. The syllabus will
be based upon the college course outline, formatted according to JCCC
Course Syllabus Guidelines, and will parallel an on-campus syllabus in
form and content.
3. Administer departmental finals in those courses in which such exams are required for on-campus courses. Adhere to departmental procedures on administration and security of departmental exams. 4. Cooperate with College Now Liaison to arrange site visits and to engage in continual collegial interaction. 5. Attend at least one College Now professional development event each year. 6. Attend JCCC program meetings or in-service as needed to insure continuity of instruction. 7. New College Now instructors: Attend new College Now instructor orientation and workshop held annually in the fall. 8. Return final grade rosters to the CN Building Representative by the date specified for each semester or year. 9. Use the adopted college textbooks for all CN courses. Exceptions must be approved by the JCCC program area. 10. Insure that course objectives or competencies match those required for the course as indicated on the JCCC Course Outline and reflected on the JCCC Course Syllabus. Additional objectives, competencies, or other material may be included in the curriculum and may be appended to the syllabus. 11. Uphold the standards, requirements, and rigor necessary for college credit to be earned by students. 12. Cooperate with the college in responding to other routine requests. Beginning Fall 2006 CN instructors will be provided a per-semester payment provided by JCCC for CN responsibilities that may occur outside the scope of the school district teaching assignment, included but not limited to those items listed above. It is expected that the instructor's primary contract with the school district will be honored and not negatively impacted by accepting the CN assignment and payment. At such time as the instructor is no longer assigned to teach CN, or no longer meets JCCC qualifications to do so, the payment will be discontinued. Assignment and selection of CN teachers is the responsibility of the school district and high school principal, in coordination with JCCC. The district reserves the right to change those assignments when determined to be in the best interests of students or the needs of the district. |
