Academic Activities Reporting is the process used to identify faculty who are teaching students and to record the contact hours associated with the instruction for the purposes of meeting State of Florida reporting requirements (the 12-Hour Law). Specifically, AAR consists of two primary functions:
- Identifying the instructor(s) of a course, and
- Allocating contact hours relative to the amount of time the instructor(s) spent in contact with students.
The Academic Activities Reporting (AAR) system replaces the Instructor Workload File (IWF).
