TO: Genie Babb, Graduate Academic Board Chair Caedmon Liburd, Undergraduate Academic Board Chair FROM: Deanna Schultz Assistant Professor, Career and Technical Education DATE: December 5, 2007 RE: Career and Technical Education (CTE) Curriculum Revisions The Undergraduate Academic Board (UAB) and Graduate Academic Board (GAB) each suggested different revisions to the CTE curriculum presented to them on November 30. To clarify the curriculum and meet approval of both boards, the following revisions are being proposed: CTE A411 and CTE A611 Historical and Philosophical Foundations of Career and Technical Education:
- GAB asked for course level justification to be separated from Section II Course Design; UAB did not identify this as a needed change. The standard format for Community & Technical College curriculum includes course level justification in Section II Course Design so it was left in that section. However, the GAB request to include language regarding leadership has been addressed.
CTE A490 and CTE A690 Selected Topics in Career and Technical Education:
- UAB members were asked directly about the suggestion made by GAB to move the sample outline to Section VI in the CCG and they did not see the need for that change. Therefore, the outline in Section VI was split into two sections: the first section is required elements for any course, the second section is areas of emphasis dependent on the topic. A sentence indicating these areas of emphasis was added.
- GAB suggested the assessment section follow the course outline in the CCG; UAB did not recommend any change. Listing the outcomes at the end of the CCG is standard practice for Community & Technical College curriculum. A statement was added to the chart of student outcomes to clarify the variability of outcomes depending on the number of credits in the course.
Other changes in wording have been addressed as requested by each board.
