TRANSCRIPT
DIABLO VALLEY COLLEGE
This is the largest, most comprehensive flex schedule yet! We decided to roll out a new, (hopefully)
improved format to make it easier to see what the activity offerings are. There have never been so many
workshop options to pick from, so choose wisely!
Ways to view this schedule:
Look through the “schedule at-a-glance,” which is organized into 3 different categories: discipline specific, themed
workshop strands, and the technology track. This schedule provides a title, time slot & location only.
View the entire list of activities, including descriptions & presenters, in list format, organized by start time each day. This
schedule is located at the end of the “schedule at-a-glance.”
If you are looking for a specific activity, use “Ctrl + F” to search by title or keyword- huge time saver!
You’ll also find helpful tips and links to DVC resources embedded throughout the schedule-at-a-glance!
Ways to register for activities: On the schedule-at-a-glance, click the title of each activity you'd like to attend and it will direct you to the
registration page for that activity. Click the registration link under each activity description in list version of the schedule. Go to the DVC professional development registration page to view the entire list of activities and click the "enroll"
button next to each activity you'd like to register for:
https://webapps.4cd.edu/apps/ProfessionalDevelopment/WorkshopEnrollment.aspx?campus=dvc o To remove yourself from the roster of an activity you can no longer attend, use the same link and click "view
your workshops" near the top of the page. Find the activity in your list, and click the "remove" button next to it.
*Note: this will only work until the activity starts.
2019-2020 Flex Obligation for Full-time Faculty
There is a total 30-hour obligation for tenured full-time faculty, a 40-hour obligation for second year tenure track
faculty, and a 50-hour obligation for first year tenure track faculty (usually completed in Nexus).
There are 5 hours of Mandatory Flex each semester for a total of 10 mandatory hours per year.
Full-time “A” contract faculty may choose to complete their Flex obligation over the entire calendar year, July 1
through June 30.
Flex credit cannot be “banked” or “made up” from one academic year to another.
Fall 2019 Flex Obligation for Part-time “C” and “AC” Faculty
Part-time faculty have a Flex obligation that is directly related to compensation and the number of instructional days in the
semester. Flex obligation is based on the academic calendar, more specifically to the day of the week on which classes
begin and end.
Consequently, the Flex obligation is adjusted each semester. The semester start or end date can prevent a full 16-week
semester of class meetings. Part-time Flex obligation applies only to adjunct faculty who are teaching face-to-face, full-term
(16-week) classes (it does not apply to online, short-term or late start classes).
For Fall 2019, part-time instructors (and full-time faculty on AC contract) teaching a semester length, face-to-face class,
have a flex obligation that is equal to the number of instructional hours taught in a week on Sundays, Mondays, Thursdays,
Fridays and Saturdays. In short, if you teach a full term, face-to-face class any day mentioned here, the number of hours of
your flex obligation are equal to the number of hours you teach on those days in one week. So if you teach 3 hours on
Wednesday, and 3 hours on Thursday, you only owe 3 hours. If you only teach on Tuesday or Wednesday, you do not have
a flex obligation for fall.
Flex activities must be completed during the semester they are required. “C” and “A/C” contract faculty may not bank
hours and use them in a different semester.
Note: non-instructional faculty (i.e., librarians and counselors) with no unit-bearing teaching load do not have a Flex
obligation.
Happy Browsing!

FA19-403: Non Credit: Next Steps for CCCCD
9:00am-
1:00pm
This session is a follow up to the introductory workshop last January. DO NOT WORRY if you
missed that fun time! If you are interested in getting grounded or learning more about non
credit through discussing, collaborating, and networking with our 4CD college partners – this
workshop is for you! Specific topics: Anticipating AB705 impacts, is non credit an option we
need to take a serious look at? How does this method of instruction differ than credit and
how might it serve our students? Come prepared to ask questions and participate; this is NOT
a passive presentation.

Discussions about race can make students and instructors feel uncomfortable. How

conversations about race. Participants will have the opportunity to role-play and will
learn specific strategies they can use in the classroom to advance difficult but

Student success and retention is a moving target. Students need different kinds of
encouragement at different times. The challenge is knowing which students are facing
which obstacles and sharing that information with key people on campus who can
intervene and help.
Starfish is an “early alert” communication tool that will help the DVC community
identify students who need additional support in real-time and connect students with
critical resources.

FA19-239: Help Students Get to the Right Class: English First Two Weeks Enrollment Strategies
12:00pm-
1:00pm
This FLEX activity continues conversations started over the summer: How can we be
flexible during the add/drop period to help our students find the right path for them,
whether it’s English 122, English 122+120, or the ESL track? How can we support the
students sitting in front of us (no matter who they are)? This flex workshop will help us
address these important questions, both logistically (how can I help a student move
from 120, where she’s bored and languishing, to 122, where she’ll thrive?) and
philosophically (what should support look like in a stand-alone 122?). This workshop will
be especially useful to instructors teaching in the English First Weeks Enrollment Pilot,
which is meant to facilitate students finding the right course through instructor referral,
advising, and placement; however, this conversation is valuable for all 122, 122A, 120,
and 120A instructors, and everyone is welcome and encouraged to attend.

(optional)
Workshop:
ePortfolios, which are easily adaptable for different kinds of classes, can provide
tremendous benefits for students: a motivational tool for academic Self Reflection (Who
am I—what is my Dream? Why am I Here—what is my Plan?); a metacognitive tool for
ongoing reflection on their classwork and progress in class; and/or a learning-style tool
in a modality and medium academically nontraditional yet already familiar and
engaging for them. In this workshop, participants will learn how to create a simple
ePortfolio using Weebly.com that they can replicate in their classrooms with suggestions
for adapting it to particular needs.
Optional work session afterward:
Stay for the optional work session after ePortfolios, where you can apply what you’ve
learned with an expert nearby to help troubleshoot.

FA19-309: Adjuncts: Surviving & Thriving 6:00pm-
9:00pm
Being an adjunct in a collegiate environment is tough enough and many of us struggle with
how to make our way in what can be a goofy system. This can be especially true if you are
unaware of not only WHO TO ASK BUT WHAT TO ASK AS WELL. Come and connect with others
who are in the same position. We'll share, break bread, and hopefully provide a ton of answers
of how to survive and thrive in what can be a chaotic environment. Bring your questions,
stories, and concerns and let us help you better understand and navigate being an adjunct
at DVC.
