Change and Diversity in the Work Patterns of Australian Academics.
McInnis, Craig
Higher Education Management, v8 n2 p105-17 Jul 1996
Surveys of Australian college faculty, conducted in 1977 and 1993, provide data for tracing trends in workload. While time devoted to teaching and research have remained stable, changes at the margins of academic workload are considerable. These tasks are largely generated by demands of institutional competition, accountability, and quality assurance. Concerns emerge from possible related changes in personnel policy and practices.
