Load Model/Allocations for 2004/05
Teaching Load Model
The load for a module is calculated as a notional number of hours using the formula:
Load = Alloc*(A + 0.5*B*N)
where Alloc is the fraction of the module allocated to the lecturer, A and B depend on the type of module and N is the number of students taking the module. For a single 10cr module, A = 60, B = 1. A single 20cr module taught in one semester is treated as producing a load only 50% more than a single 10cr module. Linked modules which have a single examination have B reduced by 0.25. The table below summarizes the resulting values.

A few modules do not fit into this table.
- Modules which are strict subsets of others have A = 0, since all N-independent load is included in the 'parent' module. Such modules are marked by [] around the lecturer's name and have an I added to the 'Type' code.
- There are a number of 'parent' project modules which lecturers coordinate rather than teach. In addition, modules taught by external lecturers or by Teaching Assistants have an internal lecturer assigned as the coordinator. Such modules are marked by () around the lecturer's name. They are included with estimated values of A and with B = 0. There are some other 'special' modules with non-standard loads (e.g. Commercial Programming). All these modules have the 'Type' code S.
Values of N are as always subject to some uncertainty!

Overall Teaching Loads
To avoid over-interpretation of small differences and to take account of uncertainties in the number of students taking a module, overall loads have been divided by 10.

Administrative Load Model
This section has not yet been updated for 2005/06.
All known administrative tasks potentially undertaken by academic staff have been grouped into seven 'bands'. This is intended to be an approximate rank ordering of the work load involved, taking into account total hours, spread over the year, potential degree of disruption by students, etc.
School Committee agreed not to attempt to assign hours to the bands. However, it should be noted that the scale is not linear. Combining tasks is currently done using the formula (Sum(B^P))^1/P, where B = Band and P = 1.7.
Please note that most ex officio tasks are not listed. (E.g. the Academic Manager is also Chair of Teaching Committee and the Head of School is Chair of School Committee.)
