Explanation: An explanation of how the course meets the outcomes for each category selected.
For courses that are in the Ways of Knowing category, please explain how this course meets the Ways of Knowing outcome selected above and how it meets the objectives for your subcategory.
For courses in the Bachelor of Arts/Sciences category only (you are not petitioning into a Ways of Knowing category), please explain which WOK subcategory you will be using for assessment purposes.聽 The Core 39 Implementation Task Force aligned goals and learning objectives of the Bachelor of Arts/Sciences categories to the related Ways of Knowing Categories (2014 Report).聽 For that reason, the Core Curriculum Committee has not historically approved petitions unless
- Natural Science & Natural Science with a Lab is assessed using one of the Scientific and Mathematical Inquiry rubrics.
- Social Science is assessed using the Social Inquiry rubric.
- World Language & World Languages and Culture are assessed using the World Languages and Culture rubric.
The Course Syllabus: The syllabus must identify which CORE 39 category or categories it fulfills.
Key Assignment(s): The key assignment must fit the common assessment rubric for the category/outcome you have selected. Rubrics can be found on the CORE 39 website. Contact your CCAF if you need assistance.
NOTE: If your key assignment is a multiple-choice test, you must include 3 questions for each item listed on the common assessment rubric(s) for your categories.
PREFERENCE: In order to simply the assessment process, please consider using ONE key assignment that is keyed the appropriate rubric(s).
PART 4: Read and indicate that you understand the following information:
I understand that my course will be placed into a three-year assessment rotation. The course will be assessed one time during this period. The assessment will be for all academic focuses that have been selected for the course.
I understand that all artifacts and rubrics will be stored in the Tk20 system for accreditation purposes.
I will attend the assessment and Tk20 training sessions in the semester prior to assessing this course for the first time.
FOR WAYS OF KNOWING COURSES ONLY: I understand that I will be required to develop a key assignment (or modify my existing key assignment) to fit the subcategory rubrics.
FOR BA/BS COURSES ONLY: I understand that I will be required to develop a key assignment to fit the new WOK subcategory rubrics.
