Minutes of the January 22, 2010, meeting approved.
I. Items on the “punch list” were discussed:
- Bullet #2 on LO3 chart – The group agreed that it should be extremely rare, and only for a MODL major, that 2 LO3 outcomes could not be met outside the major. All students except MODL majors meet 1 outcome via their language requirement and 1 outcome via their Science for the Citizen automatically. Suggest an additional footnote that Susan Vanek’s office has the authority to waive a requirement/rule.
- Concerns have been expressed about assessment and manageability with respect to LO3 and Women’s Voices requirements and with respect to advising. It is important to note in response to faculty concerns about faculty workload for assessing, that an assessment plan will be developed.
- Consider whether to attempt to include either technological literacy or media literacy in the first round of implementation. We could assess levels of technological and media literacy. Can we use the common experience to address these outcomes?
- Should non-classroom experiences count toward fulfilling the Women’s voices outcomes? Yes, non-classroom experiences could fill the one non-designated slot for Women’s Voices.
II. The group approved the agenda for the presentation to the Education Committee of the Board and Patricia will forward to the Chair.
III. Next meeting will be Friday, February 5, noon-2 pm.
