Change <strong>in</strong> ownership <strong>of</strong> courses – GRADUATE – MAJOR COURSE CHANGE<br />
On February 22, 2011, the Board <strong>of</strong> Trustees approved the formation <strong>of</strong> the Science, Technology,<br />
Eng<strong>in</strong>eer<strong>in</strong>g, and Mathematics (STEM) Education Department. The STEM Education Department will be<br />
fiscally implemented on July 1, 2011.<br />
We are request<strong>in</strong>g a <strong>change</strong> <strong>in</strong> ownership for the mathematics and science education courses taught by<br />
STEM Education faculty be moved <strong>to</strong> the STEM Education Department as written <strong>in</strong> Appendix A<br />
(Attached) <strong>of</strong> the STEM Education Department Proposal. All <strong>of</strong> these courses currently reside <strong>in</strong> the<br />
Department <strong>of</strong> Curriculum & Instruction (<strong>EDC</strong>).<br />
There is no <strong>change</strong> <strong>to</strong> the content <strong>of</strong> the courses, just simply a <strong>change</strong> <strong>to</strong> the course Prefix.<br />
All courses listed below will go from <strong>EDC</strong> <strong>prefix</strong> <strong>to</strong> <strong>SEM</strong> <strong>prefix</strong>. This <strong>prefix</strong> was approved by Jeann<strong>in</strong>e<br />

APPENDIX A<br />
Current Courses Taught by STEM Education Faculty <strong>in</strong> Curriculum and Instruction and Future Courses<br />
Taught <strong>in</strong> STEM Education<br />
There are currently 96 courses on record with<strong>in</strong> the Department <strong>of</strong> Curriculum and Instruction. Twenty<br />
(21%) <strong>of</strong> these courses are taught by STEM Education Faculty Members. The follow<strong>in</strong>g courses would be<br />
transferred <strong>to</strong> the STEM Education Department under “<strong>SEM</strong>” (as approved by registrar’s <strong>of</strong>fice) and<br />
rema<strong>in</strong> the responsibility <strong>of</strong> the STEM Education Faculty Members. Courses taught with<strong>in</strong> set programs<br />
such as the MIC, Elementary, and Middle School Programs will cont<strong>in</strong>ue <strong>to</strong> be coord<strong>in</strong>ated with the<br />
Program Faculty Chair as usual. (see table 4). No exist<strong>in</strong>g Curriculum and Instruction courses will be cut<br />
or planned <strong>to</strong> be cut. Table 5 represents new courses <strong>to</strong> be created with<strong>in</strong> the new STEM Education<br />
Department <strong>to</strong> meet the needs <strong>of</strong> STEM PLUS, current certification programs, and our graduate<br />
students. See “Forecasted STEM Education Course Offer<strong>in</strong>g” (table 6) for future course <strong>of</strong>fer<strong>in</strong>gs.<br />
