2. Area E Discussion: Yolanda Coleman discussed past practice on how courses get on the GE list. The previous articulation officer would make the decision independently. She brought up the LIB 010 course request to be added to the GE list and felt it would not be appropriate for her to solely make the decision. Instead, she would like to have a committee formed to discuss and decide on this matter. The following motion was passed unanimously (M/S/U – Sanchez/Meyer):

“that the Mission College Curriculum Review Committee form a subcommittee to look at courses requesting to be added to a G.E.”

 

The following motion was also passed unanimously (M/S/U – Sanchez/Meyer):

“that LIB 010 be included in the G.E. list under Area E.”

 

7.     Old Business

a.     AP Chart: Nothing to report.

b.     Course Inactivation Policy: Yolanda Coleman and Lynn Zummo are working with the Applied Sciences Division to establish a draft of the procedures for the course inactivation policy. It will be brought back the CRC when completed. Yolanda suggested renaming the policy to course archiving policy in order to accurately reflect what is happening with the courses.

c.     Online Curriculum Project: Nothing to report.

Hours By Arrangement (HBA) Review Process and FAQ: Dianne has been working with committees and individuals on the HBA form template. She will take all feedback and incorporate them into the HBA form template. These documents will be sent out for further critiquing. They will be brought back to the May 16^th meeting for further discussion.

Student Learning Outcomes(SLOs): Dianne presented several documents on SLOs. They included documents defining specific terminology, general step-by-step procedures and a process flowchart. These documents will help the college move closer to a direct measurement of learning outcomes.
