Load distributions may differ based on arrangements made directly with the school director.
Please enter your standard percentage distribution for the semester you were not on sabbatical. As is standard practice, the annual review will assess teaching and service the semester you are actively contracted, while research spans the entire calendar year.
Sabbatical is a time for focusing on the production and advancement of research. Because this does not always result in the increased number of research outcomes (exhibitions or publications) it does not make sense to raise the research percentage. Only adjust up your research percentage if you anticipate an increase in your research outcomes during the review period of your sabbatical year.
