PROPOSALS TABLED [please contact Bob Darling (x2923 or [email protected])]
�������� New courses:
�������������� AED 378 � Culminating Experience Colloquia
1) AED 376 and 377 needs to be altered to include AED 378 in the corequisite courses.
2) include the statement �S,U grades are assigned.� in the catalog description just before the listing of the corequisites.
3) the Office of Disability services (in the syllabus) needs to be changed to B-1.
4) the syllabus has no academic integrity statement.
5) the relative weights of� course assignments need to be listed (under Evaluation of Student Performance).
6) the length of meeting times during the four scheduled meetings needs clarification as we are currently unable to evaluate whether or not 1 credit is justified.
7) the committee has some concerns about the course title.� The use of the phrase �Culminating Experience� is somewhat non-descriptive.� The committee suggests the course should be titled �Student Teaching Colloquia�
Alteration of Existing Program
Alteration to the BA_AEN program
1) pending changes to AED 378.
2) the credit hours need changing in three places: 1) section B under the current program should read 41-42 hours rather than 42-43 hours, 2) section B under the proposed program should read 42-43 hours rather than 43-44 hours, 3) the total credit hours under the proposed program should read 75-76 hours rather than 76-77 hours.
