@hoosierphd @Comprof1 @katrinafee A2: So research or presenting is more personal development than professional adjunct need? #adjunctchat
Director of Training & Knowledge Management + Educational Researcher + Professor + Poet + Wikipedian = Liminality + Actor-Network Theory + Open Education
@JeffreyKeefer @hoosierphd @Comprof1 @katrinafee #adjunctchat Yes, always. Which takes away from the motivation to do it.
@JeffreyKeefer @Comprof1 @katrinafee We often talk about TT job as teaching/research/service. Is adjunct job just teach? #adjunctchat
@JeffreyKeefer @hoosierphd @katrinafee A2 Correct. I also feel connected w/ discipline when I publish. #adjunctchat Even allowed to review
@hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee Should be, but IS NOT! Expected to research & often asked to do service. #adjunctchat. Adjunct = PT
@hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @Comprof1 @katrinafee if adjunct is just ‘to teach’, can accomplish for more money in secondary with benefits.
@polypel88 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @Comprof1 Yes you can! Or, as I do, in central research skills teaching as professional staff.
@katrinafee @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @Comprof1 I teach secondary, publish with MA, work on phd, close gap between HS and college 4 student
@polypel88 @katrinafee @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer I did that also only I closed gap between College & workplace #adjunctchat
@polypel88 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee Not in NY state. Need certification which requires a lot. #adjunctchat
@Comprof1 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee same in TX but I see many phds roughing out the cert to get a paycheck :/ #adjunctchat
@Comprof1 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee TX doesn’t have teacher union monopoly like NY so hiring is a little easier 4 admin
@polypel88 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee Actually, not union that makes it difficult, State Ed & regents board set standards.
@polypel88 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee Even during teacher shortage they required MA in topic & Ed (2 MA) to teach HS.
@polypel88 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee Then high level of student teaching & 200 hrs/2yrs in prof continuous ed.
@Comprof1 @hoosierphd @JeffreyKeefer @katrinafee yep … Many of our univ require more classes as well esp in ELA
