  • For all those courses, how do the classroom tracks differ from the individualized instruction courses? Even the classroom track refers to the “individualized nature of the course” (p.2). In both the classroom track and the individualized track, p. 2 indicates that “[s]tudents will arrange to meet individually with the instructor once per week” as though the instruction was individualized in both models.
  • For classroom tracks: How do these courses amount to 3 credits? There seems to be only one meeting per week (or is this left over from the individualized track syllabi?) and students only have to write one paper. Reminder: According to the Board of Regents, “One semester credit hour will be awarded for a minimum of 750 minutes of formalized instruction that typically requires students to work at out-of-class assignments an average of twice the amount of time as the amount of formalized instruction (1,500 minutes).”  It would seem that in the case of these courses, either more material will need to be added or the number of credit hours will need to be scaled down.  
  • Once adjustments have been made to the classroom tracks (see above), similar adjustments will need to be considered for the individualized instruction courses.
  • For each syllabus, provide a sample weekly schedule including readings.  
  • On all syllabi, remove D- in the grading scale. (D- is not a grade at OSU.)  
  • Remove references to quarters. Each syllabus contains the following phrase, “At the final discussion meeting of the quarter…”
