The appointment of temporary faculty is governed by Article 12 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement. Please refer to the Faculty Affairs web site, then go to Academic Resources (https://www.csusm.edu/faculty_affairs/) to view the current contract.
The evaluation of temporary faculty is governed by Article 15 of the Collective Bargaining Agreement.
Evaluation instruments including rubrics may be periodically revised. All instruments must be approved by the School of Education Personnel Committee prior to use in the process.
The term “candidates” refers to university students enrolled in credential or MA. For the School of Education, the term “student” refers to K-12 students. Where terms may be misleading, clarifying language will be used.
TPE – Teaching Performance Expectations – The TPEs are the California standards used to assessment basic credential teacher candidates.
TPA – Teaching Performance Assessment – The TPA is a state approved performance assessment for teacher candidates.
Please note that the appointment of a supervisor assigned to a specific site is conditional upon the site administrator’s approval. Should an administrator request a supervisor to leave a clinical site, the supervisor will not have an opportunity for another appointment until the following semester. Removal from a clinical site serves as a strong basis for non-reappointment as a university supervisor. Additionally, the CFA contract states that part-time temporary appointments are contingent upon funding, enrollment, and other considerations as allowed.
