Junior Faculty Balancing Act: Teaching, Part I
My website poll of 96 junior faculty members has an unequivocal winner. The poll asks, "What is the hardest part about being a junior faculty member?" Over a third of the respondents chose "Teaching takes up so much time" as their response.
Exactly How Time Consuming is Teaching? Surveys of how professors spend their time indicate that professors as a group, from junior to full professors, spend 29-30 hours a week at a minimum on activities related to teaching. Obviously, new faculty, who tend to have a higher teaching load than do full professors, and who are often teaching classes that they have never taught before, probably spend more than 30 hours a week. At some colleges with more of a teaching emphasis, it has been estimated that new professors may spend 50-60 hours a week on teaching.
When it comes to teaching, there are specific actions you can take. Here are some of his recommendations that I believe are the easiest to implement.

Socrates
"And how many hours a week would you spend with your family? To that I would reply "I don't get to see them that much, because I live 1.5 hours away from them." Socrates may then say "If your religious beliefs and your family are the things you value the most, why don't you spend more time with them?" I would reply "I have to work that much because the world requires that time of me, and there is no way around it and my family is too far out of the way." And with encouragement Socrates may say "These things are important, but the most important thing you can do with your life is practice philosophy or in other words become a lover of wisdom. This helps you understand that there is a separation between body and soul and living a good life will enable you to understand that life is only a sickness which holds us back from our potential."
