Lecture Hours to be redesigned | Synchronous Location-based Hours | Hours already designed for Independent Work | Total "Hours" in Course | Dev Hrs for each lecture hour by Faculty** | Total Dev Hours (Lecture hrs multiplied by 18 hours) | No. of Faculty days | Average Salary Rate /day | Cost | |

** This number can vary widely. From 5 to 23 hours of development for every
lecture hour. We have used 18 as an average.
Note 1: Release time from one course = 180 hours or 22.5 days. Thus this will
provide partial support for "shifting" or moving instruction to a web
environment. Some of this work can be done over time as well.
Note 2: Summer equals full time for 6 weeks = 240 hours or 30 days.
Note 3: If a course has been redesigned to be 100% on the web, the assumption
is that the someone other than the primary developing faculty member delivers
the course.

development.
Note 2: One-half time graduate student for one semester = 320 hours or 40 days
Note 3: One-half time graduate student for one year = 640 hours or 80 days.
Half time summer is 240 hours or 30 days.
