Honors Courses (H or V) -- 2009-10-19
UHP has requested that I run all all Honors Courses through them before I bring them to this committee. Changes that I feel are technical details (the changes that I approve immediately and put in the "For Information" section of the meeting agendas) will not be sent to UHP. New Courses or adding an H/V to an existing course need to be approved by UHP first. Jeanne Anderegg (anderegg@umn.edu) is the UHP staff contact on this. Adding an H/V to an existing course will not also require ITCC approval.
WI Proposals -- 2008-12-1
Will Durfee is chair of the WI committee and he requests you run all WI course proposals by him first.
Technology and Society Theme -- 2008-12-1
See JOUR 3551 as an example of a well received proposal to meet this theme.
Department Information Form -- 2008-9-15
Please fill out a Department Infomation form (PDF) (or Word Doc) to get your department's information entered here.
Liberal Education Conversion for Fall 2010 -- 2008-9-15
The following are the handouts from the 2008-9-15 meeting that Laural Carroll distributed on the new CLE guildelines and the process to get courses approved in time for fall 2010 when they go into effect. (all are PDFs)
- Memo from V. Provost McMaster on Implemention (see submission schedule on page 2)
- new CLE Guidelines
- Comparison of old and new Core Requirements
- Comparison of old and new Theme Requirements
If you are submitting a course in ECAS with changes to only the CLE entries, please note this in the editors notes and it will be immediately approved at the college level.
