YIkes! To my ears that sounds like a huge workload. We have just had a new workload model approved which is based on the requirement that we do research (40%), teaching (40%) and service to the community (20% of our time). This model essentially gives us, on average, 8 hours of contact per week per semester. At most that allows us to teach (and convene) 3 courses. Most people get to do 2 courses. Then there's extra time counted if you have a large class and extra time for first year classes. So having a large, first year class can reduce the amount of face-to-face teaching you get to do.

It is very different.

And we do not have any courses currently 'online'. We don't have a distant cohort, well not in my faculty. But I think that's going to change, which explains (in part) why I got my job! ;-)
