==Areas Where Murray Saul is Struggling==
As for myself, '''I am still wrestling with providing fee-based courses at Westminster due to cost/benefit analysis'''. Curriculum design is an IMMENSE time-related activity. I am literally "straddling the fence" wondering whether or not to risk the huge amounts of time and effort in developing curriculum (especially if there are not sufficient and continued enrolment of students to pay as a return on my time investment). Remember: teaching part-time at other community colleges are is more convenient for the instructor since the curriculum has already been developed and colleges have their own marketing department to bring in the students. As a rule of thumb (or teacher joke), the teacher instructing a new course only makes $0.17 / hour. Developing a curriculum drops that wage rate down to $0.01 / hour, and the teacher worries about the return on their investment.
'''Another labour-intensive endeavour is technical documentation.''' For example, here is a WIKI that I have been authoring for quite some time to provide technical details for the setup of the computer lab (it is still incomplete): [ [http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Computer_Lab_Manual http://zenit.senecac.on.ca/wiki/index.php/Computer_Lab_Manual] ]
