American Institutions

contacted San Jose State for pre-review to make sure everything is
copasetic. If there are any problems,

during the meeting on December 8, 2003.
c.
Foreign
Language/Engineering Articulation Issues
The Foreign Language department has completed their items. The Engineering department will be done
once the paperwork is submitted to the Office of Instruction
d.
Fiesta
Update
The estimated cost for Mission is $3,700+. Dianne has not seen the specs and highly recommends college
input in the creation process. The
program would be menu-driven and offer reminders and help boxes. The major difference between Mission
and West Valley’s forms is that West Valley is very specific about time
spent on assignments and topics.
Kara wondered if a program like this would eliminate the Tech Review
Committee. Dianne understands that
once the information is in the database, it should not be difficult to tie it
to something else making it easy for students and faculty to access
outlines. Dianne suggested we have
a subcommittee to work on this.
Harriett’s experience with Kelly is that she is open to what
others need/want and she is good at finding solutions. Dianne presented some overheads of West
Valley’s curriculum forms.
Discussion ensued about the need for listing percentages under the
course content area. The
subcommittee will consist of Yolanda, Sallie, Anna, Dianne and Betty.
e.
Hours by
Arrangement Update
This item was not discussed and will remain on the agenda.
