In fall 1998, full-time instructional faculty and staff spent an average of 60 percent of their time on teaching activities, 14 percent on research activities, 13 percent on administrative duties, and 13 percent on other activities. Part-time instructional faculty and staff spent an average of 63 percent of their time on teaching activities, 5 percent on research activities, 3 percent on administrative duties, and 29 percent on other activities. Compared with those at 4-year nondoctoral and 2-year institutions, both full- and part-time instructional faculty and staff at 4-year doctoral institutions spent less of their time on teaching activities and more of their time on research. Overall, postsecondary instructional faculty and staff who used e-mail or course-specific websites reported spending more time on research activities; those who did not use these resources reported spending a larger percentage of their time on teaching activities. However, this pattern was not generally found when taking into account type of institution. Full-time instructional faculty and staff at 4-year doctoral institutions who used e-mail reported spending more of their time on teaching activities (51 percent) compared with those who did not use e-mail (48 percent). They also spent more of their time on research activities (23 percent) compared with those who did not use e-mail (20 percent).
