Hi, all--it's contract negotiation time of year here, and we are once
again trying to get 1 for 1 credit for lab instruction.  Can anyone
give me any encouraging examples to use as we negotiate?  Didn't
someone request info on this topic last year?  If there is a body of
info compiled out there I sure would appreciate receiving it.   Thanks
for your help--Johanna

Those of us who teach at Suffolk County Community College on Long Island, NY already have a 1 for 1 credit for laboratory instruction. Supervising laboratory activities is no different than supervising an in-class writing assignment in English; no different than supervising art students painting, drawing, creating any art work, etc.; no different than supervising mathematics students working on problems; no different than engineering students working on a CAD program in design; no different than supervising any computer programming student, any computer art design student, any accounting student, etc. I'm certain there are other examples out there as well.

Good luck with your negotiations!
