9-20-13: NMS Panel has following questions for unit:

  • The biological content of the course is not evident. Eight lectures are related to biology and everything else is not related to biological science. (One could make a case that the course covers as much physical science as biological science.)

     

  • Expected learning outcome #2 of GE Natural Science—Biological Science is not at all addressed, namely: “Students understand key events in the development of science and recognize that science is an evolving body of knowledge.”

     

  • Explain how all four expected learning outcomes for GE Natural Science—Biological Science are addressed in the lectures. Provide appropriate details from the lectures.

     

  • The GE assessment plan submitted is not about the GE. It should very specifically target the four expected learning outcomes for GE Natural Science—Biological Science. Direct and/or indirect assessment measures should specifically link to those outcomes. See instructions in ASC Curriculum and Assessment Manual (pp. 42-43): https://asccas.osu.edu/sites/asccas.osu.edu/files/ASC_CurrAssess_Operations_Manual.pdf .

     

  • Request to ask for letter of support from the Center for Life Sciences Education.
