5. Select Faculty Services on the Main Menu.
6. Select the “Term” and Submit.
7. Select the “CRN” and Submit. *CRN means “Course Reference Number” – This number can be found next to the name and section identifier in the registration schedule. CRNs are specific to each term.

Class lists are usually distributed by the Dean’s office to the program chairs. Program chairs, then, distribute lists to their instructors. If an adjunct instructor has a special request to have it sent to his/her home, for example, he/she may contact the Dean’s office with that request.
Syllabus
Construction, Course Competencies, Distribution, & Record of Syllabus
Syllabus Construction: The Academic Standards Commission has approved the DMACC On-line Syllabus template. The link to the template can be found at http://www.dmacc.edu/edu/helpdesk/HD_faculty.asp and it provides the instructions for accessing and using the On-line Syllabus template.
Please include the following on each syllabus:
It is the policy of DMACC to accommodate students with disabilities. Any student with a documented disability who requires reasonable accommodation should contact the special needs coordinator at (515) 964-6850 voice or (515) 964-6810 TTY.
Course Competencies: Accessing and Printing Course Competencies:
1. Log onto the Intranet on any DMACC campus computer. The Intranet
CANNOT be reached from your home computer. The address is http://dmaccintranet.dmacc.edu.
2. Double click on the arrow pointing to the “Outline Course Competencies.”
A list with the various departments appears. Select the department you need from the list on the right by double-clicking on the name (i.e., BIOL).
3. Select the Course Number of the file you want to print out (i.e., BIOL 118),
and double click on the Course Number.
4. The Adobe Acrobat Program will open and display the competency. Click on
the icon for the printer to print the list of competencies for the selected course.
Distributing Syllabus: Syllabi and course competencies need to be distributed to students during the first class period. Students who are enrolled, but are not there for the first class session or students who enroll during the official add period should be given a syllabus as quickly as possible.
Record
of Syllabus: The Dean’s office is required to have a copy of each
syllabus for the semester in the Dean's office files.
Instructors should give a copy of each syllabus to their program chairs to
turn in to the Dean’s office, or instructors can turn their syllabi in directly
to the Dean’s office.
Adjunct
Instructor Absence (Class Cancellation or Substitute)
Instructors must ensure that the correct number of contact hours is maintained for all classes. Adjuncts' absences are to be reported to the program chair and the Provost’s office.
Substitutes
For Adjuncts
Adjunct instructors should ask their particular program chairs how to arrange for substitute instructors.
Room
Scheduling and Changes
All room
scheduling, room changes, one-time usage scheduling, etc., are to be done
through the Dean’s secretary, Kari
Schopf, at Ext. 6875.
Temporary room changes (even for one day) need to be reported to the Dean’s office. This is very important because sometimes students need to be located when there is an emergency.
Office
Supplies and Equipment
Office
Supplies: Office supplies are located in the Copy Room (9-15a). Supplies
and equipment are purchased through the Dean’s office.
If an instructor requires a supply that is not in the cabinet, he/she may
request that the Dean’s office purchase the supply.
Every effort will be made by the Dean’s office to accommodate reasonable
requests for supplies.
Adjunct
Purchasing Supplies: Any instructor wishing to purchase items off campus
and then be reimbursed by DMACC should consult his/her program chair or Dean’s
office for prior approval.
Equipment
and Materials: The
Scantron
is located in the Copy Room (9-15a). Transparencies are usually made in the
copier or in the laser printers. Lab materials are stored in program-specific
storage areas. Program chairs
should be consulted if any lab materials are needed.
Media
Equipment
All
classrooms in Bldg. 9 are equipped with an instructor station which includes:
computer, printer, Elmo, data projector, TV, VCR, and overhead projector.
Problems can be directed to Julie or Kari in the Dean’s office at Ext. 6291.
In their absence, the Media Department can be called at Ext. 7300.
Keys
for Buildings/Labs
When a program chair requests a New Employee Packet from the Dean’s office, one of the many forms in that packet is a DMACC Key Assignment Card Form. The adjunct’s program chair or Dean’s office staff can fill out the form, get the Dean’s signature, and forward the form to the Physical Plant.
Access
to Computers, Network, and Labs & Problems
Access
to Computers: Adjunct instructors may use the computer workstation in the
copy room (9-15A) or in any classroom that is not occupied with a class.
In addition, adjunct instructors are encouraged to check with their program
chair as to whether there may be a computer in one of the program offices that
is available for adjunct use.
Access to Network: Once your hiring has received approval from Human Resources, you will be put on DMACC’s computer network. Either a program chair or the department’s secretary will fill out the form for this. In addition, a PIN number will be mailed to you through regular mail. This PIN number will allow you to access Web Banner for your class lists, student contact information, etc.
Computer Labs: Bldg. 9 has computers in each classroom, but no dedicated computer lab. Computers are available for student/instructor use whenever a class is not scheduled for that room. To check on room availability, contact the Dean’s office.
Computer Problems: For problems with computer network logins, please contact Systems Integration at Ext. 7300. To report problems with computers and printers in Building 9, please contact the Dean’s office. If the Dean’s office is not available, contact Systems Integration at Ext. 7300.
Mailboxes
Due to a
limited number of mailboxes available, only full-time faculty members have
mailboxes in Bldg. 9. Adjunct
instructors may be given a mailbox in the mailroom, upon request, as space is
available. Others must make arrangements for receiving messages and materials
through their program chairs.
Department
Photocopier
A department photocopier is located in 9-15A. A new instructor should request an I.D. number from the Dean’s office so he/she can enter it into the copier for access. The department copier is to be used for less than 10 copies. Any jobs requiring more than 9 copies or multiples should be sent to the Copy Room in Bldg. 6, using a Copy Request form available in the Copy Room or Dean's office.
Adjunct
Offices
Adjunct
instructors in Bldg. 9 do not have designated offices.
There is a workstation in the Copy Room equipped with computer, printer,
scanner, and copier for adjuncts to use. In
addition, each classroom is equipped with workstations with computers and
printers – at which any instructor may work if a class is not scheduled in that
room.
Student
Evaluations
The Dean’s
office distributes evaluation packets to each instructor who has a mailbox.
Those without a mailbox will be given to the program chair; the program chair
will get the evaluation packets to the adjuncts.
In fall and spring semesters, each adjunct instructor will be evaluated once
during that semester, unless the instructor requests that he/she
be
evaluated in additional classes. Evaluations
are not done in summer term, except for new instructors. Completed
evaluation packets are to be returned to the Dean’s office, Bldg. 9, Room 22.
See instruction sheet in the evaluation packet for detailed instructions of
the evaluation procedure.
Mentors
Program chairs and other program instructors are a valuable resource for materials and classroom management tips.
Program
or Department-Specific Policies and Procedures
Program chairs and group leaders will inform adjuncts of procedures and policies that are department-specific. Questions about department specific policies and procedures can be directed to them.
Office Hours: Office hours may be arranged with program chair. All
full-time instructors are required to turn in to the Dean’s office a paper copy
of their teaching schedule, so the Dean’s office will know when they are
scheduled in class, in the office, at
clinicals, etc. Adjunct
instructors are not required to do so, but are encouraged to if they will be
keeping office hours.

Emergencies
If a
student needs to be contacted by a family member, he/she may call the Dean’s
office
at 964-6394,
964-6875, or 964-6291, and the Dean’s office staff will find the student in
class, if possible.
If an emergency occurs on campus, such as a heart attack, fall, etc., the
instructor has options, depending on the severity of the emergency. He/she
can and should, if possible, contact the Dean’s office, so the Dean’s office
staff can assist in securing the proper help. The
campus nurse can be reached Monday through Friday from
