Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This research had two purposes: to determine community college department chair roles and to determine whether role conflict exists for the status of Illinois public community college department chair. The research was divided into two phases. In Phase I, community college department chair role factors were determined. Using ratings of importance reported by a sample of Illinois public community college department chairs on a modified version of Carroll and Gmelch0́9s (1992) department chair duty questionnaire, principal components analysis was employed to determine an underlying factor structure. Five factors were determined and interpreted as department chair roles: Department Leader, Resource Manager, Faculty Leader, Instructional Manager, and Teacher and Student Adviser. It was also determined whether the importance placed on department chair roles varied by department chair characteristic variables of academic discipline, departmental disciplinary composition, size of department, length of service as chair, whether the chair was elected by faculty or selected by administration, number of years served as a full-time faculty member prior to becoming department chair, and teaching load. Results indicated that certain characteristic variables of Illinois public community college department chairs influence the importance they ascribe to department chair roles. It was also determined in Phase I that role conflict and role overload exist to a mild to moderate extent for the Illinois public community college department chair status. In addition, a specific expression of role overload, namely, department chairs spending an inordinate amount of time performing roles they find of greater importance, may have been determined. In Phase II, the complete role set of department chairs, faculty, and the chief academic officer at one Illinois public community college was studied. It was determined that with minor exceptions, full-time faculty, part-time faculty, and the chief academic officer ascribed the same level of importance to the roles determined in Phase I as did the department chairs. Additionally, no statistically significant differences were found on the importance ascribed to department chair roles based on departmental disciplinary composition or length of faculty service by full and part-time faculty.

Book Department Chair Roles in the Community College

Download or read book Department Chair Roles in the Community College written by and published by . This book was released on 2004 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The community college mission has been revised as it has redefined the populations it serves and how the work is accomplished in response to global influences (Levin, 2000). However, the department chair has received little attention by those who study globalization and the community college (Levin, 2001). As community colleges revise their responsibilities according to local, state, and national mandates, department chairs find themselves in a maelstrom of change. The changing environment adds complexity to the chair position and influences chair behaviors. Chairs find themselves at critical junctures to influence key stakeholders within the college. This qualitative investigation examines two community colleges in the state of North Carolina as a specific context of institutional change. The data indicate that community college department chairs focus most of their attention on formal supervisory roles, followed by formal teaching roles, and then informal group maintenance roles. Perceptions of role importance were affected by constraints throughout the institution. Constraints on community college department chairs include the unequal dissemination of institutional resources among departments at the college and by college administrators, technology availability and training, as well as local variables that influence the community college. Department chairs are also limited in their actions by role ambiguity and by institutional bureaucracy. This situation uniquely positions chairs as both 'managed professionals' and 'managerial professionals, ' indicating a new category of professional in higher education. Department chairs' understanding of their roles may help practitioners wield influence more competently in their institutions and may help theorists more accurately conceptualize how community college leaders manage the department as the institution meets the challenges associated with globalization. This study adds to the body of knowledge by giving theorists a.
