SLO Subcommittee Report
 for College Curriculum Committee
Spring 2006
 
 
Subcommittee members:
Marcy Alancraig, English, chair
Michael Mangin, History
Dave Schwartz, Geology and Oceanography
 
Highlights:
            131 courses proposals examined
 
            98 approved – 75% of total
            5 approved because they were not required to write SLOs
            93 approved who wrote SLOs  -  70% of total
 
            33 returned – 25% of total
           

            Note: These percentages are a near reversal of last time when almost      3/4s of all proposals were returned.  Whoopee!  See detailed report for lists of specific classes.

 

            Problems:  The report we were given did not include Core Competency #4 in the print out.  Unfortunately, we did not realize this until afterward and dunned many courses which were actually done correctly.  The report also included 40 courses which were not being considered by the Curriculum Committee but which we evaluated, not realizing the  problem.  Dale says this is a reporting problem that can be fixed.  

 

Recommendations:

1.           Fix the report problem!! 

2.   Core competency #4, Personal Responsibility and Professional Development, should be always included unless the class doesn’t require any student work, student attendance or coming on time.  We suggest:
