For the purposes of this evaluation, each lecture is roughly 1 contact hour, and for every credit hour there are 15 contact hours (therefore a 3 credit hour course has 45 contact hours). For example, if the topic area was roughly 5 weeks of the class, or 15 contact hours of the class, you would indicate 1 credit hour.
