ASC Curriculum Process

 

Service-Learning course –As of May 31, 2007, CAA approved the adding of an S suffix to any course at the university that meets the criteria.
A Service-Learning course
· uses experiential strategies characterized by student participation in an organized service activity,
· is connected to specific learning outcomes,
· meets identified community needs
· provides structured time for students to analyze and connect the service experience to learning.

Honors Embedded Courses – In order to facilitate the offering of more honors experiences to honors students in all colleges at the Ohio State University, these guidelines will apply to the creation and monitoring of honors experiences embedded within current non-honors courses. This is not intended to be a replacement for offering honors courses, rather, an option that faculty may voluntarily offer to students.

ASC Model Curriculum – The Model Curriculum is the guiding document for General Education at The Ohio State University. This document was created in 1998 by the Special Committee for Undergraduate Curriculum Review (UCRC), chaired by Gerald Reagan, Professor of Educational Policy and Leadership, which was charged by then-Provost Myles Brand following an 1985 address to the University Senate by President Jennings, calling for a University-wide review of the undergraduate curriculum. All GEC courses are approved using this document (and the additional guidelines and supplemental guidelines).

GEC Guidelines – The guidelines and supplemental guidelines contained in this document were endorsed by the Arts and Sciences Curriculum Committee on March 7, 1994. The Arts and Sciences Committee on Curriculum and Instruction and its subcommittees use these guidelines to vet and approve courses that are seeking inclusion in various categories of the GEC.

Guidelines for the Proposal of Honors Embedded Courses - Guidelines from the Honors and Scholars Center on proposing an Honors Embedded component to upper-division courses.

ASC Minor Guidelines – Faculty and units should follow the guidelines when proposing or revising a minor program in the Colleges of the Arts and Sciences.

GEC Goals and Objectives - GEC goals and objectives by category, as defined by the CCI subcommittees working on general education assessment.

Committee on Curriculum and Instruction Operations Manual - The official manual and procedures for the Arts and Sciences Committee on Curriculum and Instruction and its subcommittees.
