Teaching and Tutoring Duties

You will be allocated a standard teaching load. A teaching load consists of both lecturing and small group/individual student work. Courses consist of 18 hours of lectures and 9 hours of tutorials. Courses have both coursework and examinations associated with them. Lecturers are responsible for producing these. The lecturing allocated to you may have been done by someone else previously who is likely to make their material available for your use. If this is the case you will still have to create new examination questions.

The average lecturing load is 1.5 courses. All members of staff take a personal programming group (ppt) or personal maths group (pmt) for the first two terms of each year. This is a group of about eight first year students who you will see once a week to help them with their programming/maths exercises. You will be responsible for marking their work as well.

There are a variety of projects that our students undertake. These include individual projects, group projects and independent study options. Throughout the academic year you will be responsible for about 8 of these. Which ones they are varies throughout the staff. For these projects you can either describe things that you wish to have done and have the students choose you and your project or pick up projects that are too popular for their proposer to supervise all the students who wish to undertake the given projects
