Notes
Administrative A&H Subcom reconsidered GEC category switch 4/21/09; A&H Subcom Chair B Miller followed-up 4/29/09 with dept to address recommendations made by Subcom on 1/5/09 (attached) res April 27, 2009
Administrative

A&H Subcom sent back 1/5/09:

  • Better suited to GEC Literature category if it were to shift the focus to using religious texts as a lens through which to study literature. Syllabus, for example, could have focus question such as:  What does it mean to study Literature through the lens of religion/religious texts versus what does it mean to study religion academically?
  • GEC expected learning outcomes and how those will be addressed in course are not in proposed syllabus
  • Assessment plan seemed under-specified (see CS 336 revised assessment plan for a model and specific suggestions from VW’s letter to CS 336 follow-up as a starting point for tailoring an assessment plan to this particular course)
  • Suggestion that proposers wait for broader guidance from CCI on the categorical issue
January 05, 2009
Administrative Suggestion to ask that proposers address HUM CCC questions from 10/3 minutes (see below) in an extended rationale before this goes to A&H subcommittee and that the HUM CCC receive a copy of the rationale. This would allow the proposal to move forward while strengthening the proposal in anticipation of its appearance at subcommittee. October 14, 2008
