Dozen EggsTheory- By RKTAn analogy - that's no Yoke !!!

By: RKT

In the world of education and scheduling,

each student must have a certain amount of classes to be considered

a full-time equivalent for an FTE (Full Time Equivalency-this is the state funding)


For an entire year, the number of classes to be considered full time is 12 classes.


In a semester that is 6 classes per semester of 18 weeks / 2 times per year = 12 classes


In a trimester that is 4 classes per semester of 12 weeks / 3 times per year = 12 classes


The easiest way to make this applicable is...

THINK OF A DOZEN EGGS !!!!


Note: If a student has less than 12 classes per year (6 classes per semester, a reduction of state funding will indeed be adjusted)


Below please find this theme on the variation to bring home the concept.
