| Abstract | While there was no question that part-time instructors provided a quality of instruction equal to that of full-time faculty at Saddleback College (California), there were differences in the functions performed by these two faculty groups due to limited institutional involvement supported by the terms of employment for part-time instructors. A study was conducted to compare the student preference level for full-time instructors with that for part-time instructors. The enrollment distribution of 3,838 students who registered in 43 different courses with comparable class sections taught by either full-time instructors (130 class sections and 46 instructors) or part-time instructors (103 class sections and 57 instructors) was used to calculate a student preference score for the instructor of each class section. Based on study findings, it was concluded that the full-time faculty student preference score was significantly higher than that score for part-time instructors. With 99% certainty, the difference between these scores was found to lie between 9% and 35% of the average course enrollment per section. A series of recommendations were developed to improve student relations with and perceptions of part-time faculty. A three-page bibliography concludes the document. (EJV) |
