Intersegmental

Faculty-driven And its new role --- implementing SB 1440

Identify the essential, common components of a course

Provide enough detail to serve as the basis for articulation

Inform course updates Permit identification of

comparable courses Provide consistency for the TMC

C-ID Descriptors include:

• Develop draft descriptors at DIGs

• FDRG finishes the draft descriptors

• Vet draft descriptors (college & university) www.c-id.net

• Finalize descriptors (FDRG)

• Seek articulation with universities

• Seek COR submissions from CCCs

Be sure you and your colleagues sign up for the Nursing listserv ---to receive notices to review & comment on drafts.

A department meeting might be spent reviewing them together.

www.c-id.net

Discuss components of a model curriculum

Draft course descriptors in 4 groups

1 Med Surg: intro & intermediate

2 Med Surg : complex med surg; critical care; geriatric care

3 Specialities: OB; Peds; Psych/mental health

4 Multicultural; Leadership; Pharmacology

Tasks today

Mandates colleges offer “associate degrees for transfer”

Offers benefits for students

• A student must complete 60 semester units or 90 quarter units that are eligible for transfer to the CSU that consist of

IGETC or CSU GE Breadtha major or area of emphasis of at least 18 units, as defined by the CCC

• No additional local graduation requirements may be required

• Minimum GPA of 2.0

Associate Degree for Transfer Requirements:

1.“the CSU shall guarantee admission with junior status”

2.“. . . does not guarantee admission for specific majors or campuses”

3.“priority admission ---to local CSU campus and to a program or major that is similar . . . as determined by the CSU campus”

“The CSU may require a student transferring pursuant to this article to take additional courses at the CSU so long as the student is not required to take any more than 60 additional semester units or 90 quarter units at the CSU for majors requiring 120 semester units or 180 quarter units.”

“The CSU shall not require students . . . to repeat courses that are similar to those taken at the CC that counted toward the associate degree for transfer.”

112 colleges develop unique degrees in each major. . .

OR

A concerted, statewide, intersegmental transfer model curriculum (TMC)

Appropriate courses for an associate degree

“Double-counting”

fields

“DIG” or FDRG drafts initial TMC (Faculty Discipline Review Group)

FDRG reviews & modifies the draft

A draft TMC is posted at www.c-id.net for vetting

FDRG makes sense of the feedback either finalizes TMC or

modifies and re- vets if needed

TMC is finalized

CCCs develop degrees to align with TMC

CSU campuses determine if TMC is “similar”

18 final TMCs

>6 under development

~330 degrees approved in Chanc. Office so far

> 294 C-ID descriptors in place

>1200 courses approved in C-ID

Many more C-ID descriptors in the works

Progress so far

First is C-ID: intersegmental faculty groups (FDRG)

They develop course descriptors

They develop a TMC

The relationship:C-ID + AA/AS-T

1. Look at “DIG” notes: “TMC” & questions

2. Consider “TMC”

3. Identify courses, then course descriptors:

a) Med Surg: intro & intermediate

b) Med Surg : complex med surg; critical care; geriatric care

c) Specialities: OB; Peds; Psych/mental health

d) Multicultural; Leadership; Pharmacology

Today’s Groups:

It helps if we can. . .

Maintain statewide perspectives. (Local

campuses always have idiosyncrasies. )

Consider: what would the ideal case be?

Consider other initiatives’ progress(1295 +
