For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome. M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not.

I – Introductory/Background – There is an indirect relationship between the course and the outcome. The outcome itself is not the focus of the course but at least one element of the course serves as a building block to the achievement of the final outcome. For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome. M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not. E – Emphasized – There is a direct relationship between the course and the outcome. At least one element of the course focuses specifically on the complex integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to perform the outcome.

School: Business and Technology
Current Course Number: ELM 299 Current Course Name: Cooperative Work Experience & Seminar Current Course Description (as it appears in the college catalog including course three letter designation and number, title, credits, semesters offered and prerequisites/corequisites): ELM 299 Cooperative Work Experience & Seminar This course provides students with a structured learning experience while applying classroom theory to a practical work experience. Students participate in a seminar where they exchange feedback about their work experiences. The number of credits earned is determined by the number of weeks and hours per week required by the cooperative work experience and the established learning objectives. Credits: 3-6 Semester Offered: F/S/SU Prerequisites: ELT 104, ELT 130 Proposed Description (include all proposed changes): EET 299 Cooperative Work Experience This course provides students with a structured learning experience while applying classroom theory to a practical work experience. Students develop a learning agreement that lists the objectives they will accomplish through their work experience. Evaluation is based on satisfactory completion of the learning agreement objectives and the demonstration of soft skills such as punctuality and attitude. Credits: 3 Semester Offered: F/S/SU Prerequisites: ELT 104, ELT 130 Rationale for the change: Currently we have two CO-OP courses taken by students in the Electronics Engineering Technology program – ELM 299 and ELT 299. ELT 299 was the original CO-OP course for the Electronics Technology program, and ELM 299 was created later for the Electromechanical Technology program. Since then, the ELT and ELM programs have been consolidated into the Electronics Engineering Technology program. ELT 299 and ELM 299 are identical in content, so it makes sense to replace them with one CO-OP course taken by all EET students. The original course description describes a “seminar” which is no longer part of the course. Instead, there is a required CO-OP orientation where students learn the process of searching for and applying for jobs. The course description is being changed to reflect the CO-OP process as it is currently. Provide a description of any change in course content. No change in course content.

MNT 106 Manufacturing Quality Assurance & Control Techniques
This course enhances the use of blueprint reading skills through the study of geometric dimensioning and tolerances. Students analyze the dimensional and performance requirements of individual parts or components. Students utilize industry-standard practices in the field of inspection to qualify component part conformance to a given blueprint. Quality control techniques drive the success of engineering and manufacturing companies. This course provides students with an understanding of the critical nature of quality, and recognizing potential problems before they appear. Students use high precision measuring equipment and statistical process control (SPC) methods to determine and support quality control requirements.
Credits: 4
Semester Offered: S
Note: Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory
Proposed Description (include all proposed changes):
MNT 106 Manufacturing Quality Assurance & Control Techniques
This course enhances the use of blueprint reading skills through the study of geometric dimensioning and tolerances. Students analyze the dimensional and performance requirements of individual parts or components. Students utilize industry-standard practices in the field of inspection to qualify component part conformance to a given blueprint. Students explore concepts of lean manufacturing as it relates to the industry. This course provides students with an understanding of the critical nature of quality, and recognizing potential problems before they appear. Students use high precision measuring equipment, lean tools, and statistical process control (SPC) methods to determine and support quality control requirements.
Credits: 4 Prerequisite: MNT 101Semester Offered: F/S
Note: Three hours lecture, three hours laboratory
Rationale for the change:
Students find it difficult to be successful in the lab activities with prior knowledge of skills learned in MNT 101. Concepts of lean are being added to support student success in MNT 218 – Lean manufacturing and Six Sigma. Provide a description of any change in course content. Added content to include the use of new equipment and lean concepts.
Does the course revision affect another department? Please confer with the coordinator of the affected department. Affected department(s) ______N/A_____________________ Attach current and proposed academic maps for all affected programs (listed on page 1 of this proposal). **Attached: CNC Technologies Certificate (Program Code: CNC)

• The program has been designed to incorporate credentials earned through the MACWIC credentialing system, provide credit for these credentials, and build on the student’s knowledge and skills to further their education.
• This new certificate program will assist and support apprentice graduates to enroll and register for appropriate courses at QCC.
Note: Meetings were conducted between the appropriate QCC and MASSMEP departments to review and design this certificate.
Wage analysis for this is listed by Onet online with a median wage of $22,84 (2014) Computer Numerically Controlled Machine Tool Programmers, Metal and Plastic http://www.onetonline.org/link/summary/51-4012.00 During the annual advisory committee meeting in Jan 2015, this option was discussed. The board agreed that this certificate would be beneficial to them. Further conversation have been had that further the need for CNC operators. This is also in line with the CNC skills training offered by MassMEP. According to the Commonwealth of Massachusetts, here are the projections for employer needs from 2012 – 2022 in Massachusetts. http://lmi2.detma.org/lmi/OccupationProjection.asp?AreaType=01&area=000025&Occ=5140112

List the PROGRAM STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES in the table below. Indicate the course or courses that will fulfill each outcome and indicate the degree or level of connection between the course and outcome as indicated here.
I – Introductory/Background – There is an indirect relationship between the course and the outcome. The outcome itself is not the focus of the course but at least one element of the course serves as a building block to the achievement of the final outcome. For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome. M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not. E – Emphasized – There is a direct relationship between the course and the outcome. At least one element of the course focuses specifically on the complex integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to perform the outcome.

I – Introductory/Background – There is an indirect relationship between the course and the outcome. The outcome itself is not the focus of the course but at least one element of the course serves as a building block to the achievement of the final outcome. For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome.

Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 102 of 163
M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not. E – Emphasized – There is a direct relationship between the course and the outcome. At least one element of the course focuses specifically on the complex integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to perform the outcome.

COURSE REVISION PROPOSALType of Revision:
_X__ Description __X_ Prerequisite ___Corequisite ___ Number _X__ Name ___ #credits ___ Elective Type ___ other (explain)
Course Discipline or Department: Complementary Health
School: Healthcare
Current Course Number: CHC 150 Current Course Name: Health and Healing Current Course Description (as it appears in the college catalog): CHC 150 Health and Healing This course explores the mind/body/spirit dimensions of health and healing, as well as theories of health maintenance, illness prevention, balanced living and self-care in the cultivation of health and wellness. The role of the patient-provider relationship and its relevance to health and healing is emphasized. The course also covers health and healing theories of the biomedical, integrative, complementary and energetic perspectives. Credits: 3 Semester Offered: F Prerequisite: BIO 101, ENG 091 with a grade of “C” or higher, ENG 096 with a grade of “C” or higher; or appropriate placement score
Proposed Description and Course Name (include all proposed changes): CHC 150 Health and Healing: Mind-Body-Spirit
This course explores the whole person health promotion and lifestyle behavior change through the mind-body-spirit perspective of complementary-integrative health and healing. Students explore how all may use Complementary –integrative health perspective and self-care practices (such as Meditation/mindfulness, Breath, Imagery/visualization, Yoga, Integrative wellness care plans, among others) to support health, healing and well-being for oneself and for those in one’s care. The relationship and influence of lifestyle behaviors, chronic stress, and chronic pain on health states is examined. Students learn experiential, reflective and energy-based activities that illustrate Complementary Health’s guiding principles of illness prevention/healthy living, active learning, naturalistic health and healing and whole person care. Credits: 3 Semester Offered: F Prerequisite: ENG 091 with a grade of “C” or higher, ENG 096 with a grade of “C” or higher; or appropriate placement score
Rationale for the change: The current definition of BIO 101 as pre-or co-requisite to CHC 150 is an error. It first appears in the College Catalogues around 2009-10. Prior to that, it was not a part of curriculum definition. It appears to be a typographic error. It has presented unnecessary obstacle to student course enrollment/access and unnecessary barrier to learner interest in taking the course; it is not required for participation in course curriculum.
The current course description was defined in 1999-2001. The Complementary- Integrative fields have experienced growth and development in the ensuing time period that creates a need to edit our descriptions and assure our curriculum is current in language, content, concepts, practices and learning. Update also reflects APR recommendations for descriptive language that expresses the energetic perspective of integrative wellness/self-care and updating for currency.

Plagiarism Statement: The following description of plagiarism is found in the student handbook but is reprinted here because of its importance:
"Our purpose in the classroom is to seek the truth; this work requires trust and honesty between teacher and student. If we are not honest about what we know and don't know, our learning will always be impaired. Because our teaching and learning depends on honest communication, we expect all students to understand what plagiarism is and why it is unacceptable.
Plagiarism means taking someone else's ideas or words and presenting them as one's own. The offence can take many forms including cheating on a test, passing in a paper taken from the internet or from another student, or failing to properly use or credit sources in an essay. Sometimes the issue is subtle, involving getting too much help on an assignment from someone else. In every instance plagiarism means cheating both one's self and the owner of the sources. Since the cheating sabotages a student's learning experience, consequences range from no credit for the assignment to failure for the course and possible expulsion from the college".

How does the course support general education? Using the chart below, indicate the degree or level of connection between the course and outcome as indicated here.
I – Introductory/Background – There is an indirect relationship between the course and the outcome. The outcome itself is not the focus of the course but at least one element of the course serves as a building block to the achievement of the final outcome. For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome.
M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not.
E – Emphasized – There is a direct relationship between the course and the outcome. At least one element of the course focuses specifically on the complex integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to perform the outcome.

Methods of Evaluation
Achievement of course objectives are measured by online examinations and written assignments.
Criteria for grading and evaluation
4 Unit Examinations ........................... 50%
Paper/ Pamphlets Presentation/ Other Assignments 25%
Comprehensive Final Examination. 25 %
Combined Total 100%
All exams include medical terminology and abbreviations based on assignments for that time period. The
Final Exam is cumulative.
Make up exams
Unit Exams are given during class time. The exam will take the prescribed amount of set time and they must
complete the timed exam in that time frame. Students will know how much time is given well in advance of
taking the exam. If a student fails to take an exam on the scheduled day, he/she must notify the faculty prior to
the test to make arrangements for a make-up. If a student does not notify the instructor ahead of time and then
misses an exam they will not be allowed to take the exam. In most cases, the make-up test will be given on a
prearranged day. The make-up test may be multiple choice, essay, oral, short answer, or a combination of all. It
will receive a 5-point penalty on the exam grade.
Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 123 of 163
Unless there are extreme circumstances and the faculty are prenotified, the final exam cannot be missed,
no make up will be given.
Review of exams
Unit Exams are corrected directly after all students take the exam. They are evaluated and reviewed for correct
and incorrect answers. Grades will be posted on Blackboard, and students may meet individually with a
prearranged time to go over exams. After two weeks they will not be able to be reviewed again.
Plagiarism
The following description of plagiarism is found in the student handbook but is reprinted here because of its
importance:
"Our purpose in the classroom is to seek the truth; this work requires trust and honesty between teacher
and student. If we are not honest about what we know and don't know, our learning will always be
impaired. Because our teaching and learning depends on honest communication, we expect all students to
understand what plagiarism is and why it is unacceptable.
Plagiarism means taking someone else's ideas or words and presenting them as one's own. The offence can
take many forms including cheating on a test, passing in a paper taken from the internet or from another
student, or failing to properly use or credit sources in an essay. Sometimes the issue is subtle, involving
getting too much help on an assignment from someone else. In every instance plagiarism means cheating
both one's self and the owner of the sources. Since the cheating sabotages a student's learning experience,
consequences range from no credit for the assignment to failure for the course and possible expulsion
from the college".
Attendance Policy:
Students are expected to participate in all their assignments on a weekly basis. If a student feels they will be
unable to submit an assignment they must contact that instructor as soon as they can prior to any deadline of
the assignment being due to request to submit the assignment after the due date. Instructor should be notified
via email as soon as the student realizes that they may be absent or will not complete an assignment.
Refer to the Quinsigamond Community College Student Handbook for policies regarding attendance, snow
days, and other pertinent information.

through the Registrar’s Office.
A = 95-100 C = 73-76
A- = 90-94 C- = 70-72
B+ = 87-89 D+ = 67-69
B = 83-86 D = 63-66
B- = 80-82 D- = 60-62
C+ = 77-79 F = less than 61
Please note that the Registrar issues official grades.
Assignments:
All assignments should be completed by the assigned due dates. If an assignment is not completed by the due
date the student will lose 10 points. An assignment will not be accepted after one week of the due date.
Faculty encourages the use of supplemental study tools available at the website for your text. Assignments are
designed to develop and use different technological skills. Students may be required to write papers, using APA
format and referencing with in text citations, to make picture pamphlets, to create Microsoft PowerPoint
presentations and to make concept maps to assist in learning the content. Specific directions will be given and
students should seek assistance when needed for assignments.
Due to the volume of emails, Assignments will not be accepted via email. All assignments must be submitted
in the assigned areas, as described in the assignment and the module checklist. If you do not know how to
submit an assignment, contact the course instructor to get further directions, prior to the due date.
Academic Honesty
Because of various pressures to succeed, learners are often tempted to use dishonesty, plagiarism and cheating
to reach their goal. This is considered unethical. Cheating includes copying answers from someone else’s paper
with or without their knowledge, receiving copies of quizzes and receiving foreknowledge of test questions. If
cheating is suspected by observation of the instructor or fellow learner report to the instructor, the instructor
may approach a learner. If proof of dishonesty, plagiarism or cheating is discovered, the academic dean will be
informed and the learner may receive zeros for all assignments related to the plagiarism and be subject to the
Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 125 of 163
college code of conduct. This may result in a failing grade for the course. In the practice of medicine and the
healing arts, dishonesty is especially intolerable as people’s lives and health are at stake!!

NEW COURSE PROPOSAL
Course Discipline/Department: Humanities School: Humanities
Course Number: HUM 234
Course Name: Mathematics and Science in the Humanities
Prerequisites and/or corequisites (confer with affected department coordinator): Prerequisite: ENG 102
CIP code (check with IRaP Office): 24.0101
Effective Term/Year: Fall 2017
Give a rationale for the new course. Be sure to indicate whether this course replaces another course.
This course will explore the methods and areas in which the Humanities interacts with mathematics and science. The materials of this course illuminate the fruitful exchange of information and perspectives between these usually separated fields of study. The interdisciplinary method of analysis this course teaches and employs will serve students across their education and beyond QCC.
This course is going to draw the attention of: • STEM students seeking thematic unity between their degree program and general education
requirements. • STEM students who lack confidence in the humanities.• Humanities/Liberal Arts students fascinated by the Sciences and Mathematics.• Students looking for a true interdisciplinary course/methodology.• Students seeking to explore and find their own place in and through a college education.
With current QCC programs and facilities, this course will be able to explore localized topics such as: • Robotics and Fabrication of Next-Generation Technology• Computer Technologies and Perspectives• Biology, Environmental Sciences, and Bio-Engineering
Taking a Humanities based approach to these areas will supplement the technical skillset and training of STEM students while providing a humanist lens – one that considers the effect of these disciplines, addressing and considering their influence on global human culture and mindset. This is the type of thinking that will evolve QCC students from skilled workers in their fields to leaders in them.
The objectives of this course can be strengthened through communication with colleagues in these programs, with the hope of inviting guest lecturers to class and taking time to visit the facilities in the QuEST building.
This does not replace any existing course.
Is the course content similar to other courses now offered? Yes ___ No __X__ If yes, attach a statement for the coordinator of the department offering the similar course. Please indicate if this course will serve as any of the following types of electives.

Course Materials
Course Number: HUM 234 Course Name: Mathematics and Science in the Humanities Credits: 3.0 Credits Lecture Hours: 45 Lab hours: 0 Clinic Hours: 0 General course description and prerequisites (as it will appear in the catalog): This course examines how the Humanities utilizes and interacts with the fields of Mathematics and Science. Students utilize methodologies of the Humanities to examine the historical, philosophical, and ethical natures of Math and Science. Students explore mathematics and science as theoretical lenses to understand literary texts and other forms of art. This course covers topics that include but are not limited to infinities, multidimensional spacetime, biology and environmental science, robotics and technology, the mathematician/scientist character, and the discovery and impact of individual numbers/theories. Students compose essays and participate in discussions to demonstrate the connectivity of these usually disparate fields (no formal mathematical calculations are required of students). Prerequisite: ENG 102 F/S/SU All required texts and paperbacks, including information on publisher and edition used (provide a suggested text): Course materials will be selected by the instructor based on expertise, contemporary cultural relevance, and integration with current QCC programs, majors, and facilities. Sample text selections can be viewed on the attached generic syllabus. Instructional Objectives (list): In this course, students learn to:
• Identify what the Humanities gains from and offers to the fields of Science and Mathematics • Use the methodology of the Humanities to examine Mathematics and Science (philosophically,
historically, culturally, etc.) • Use Mathematics and Science as theoretical lenses to examine literature and the arts • Utilize an interdisciplinary/connective model of knowledge and employ it critically to answer
questions posed in the Humanities • Preserve the integrity and form of each disciplinary framework so that a fruitful exchange of
information can occur • Demonstrate the critical and analytical exchange between seemingly distant methodologies • Problem solve through a truly interdisciplinary framework of analysis
Teaching procedures (provide suggested teaching methodology): Recommended teaching methods for this course:
• Students participate in class discussions analyzing assigned readings with particular focus on employing the course methodologies while offering personal insights into the texts
• Students compose researched essays that display their understanding of the course materials, demonstrating their ability to analyze using the methods of the class
• Students are encouraged to utilize the expertise and knowledge from other areas of study when analyzing texts and completing assignments, establishing a cohesive educational framework
Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 147 of 163
Course topics and/or assignments and/or required and/or supplemental reading (provide a list of suggested course topics): Course topics can include:
• Exploring Mathematics and Science via the Humanities (historically, culturally, philosophically, and artistically)
• Mathematics and Science as theoretical frameworks for analyzing human perspectives and art • Infinities • Prime Numbers • Multidimensional spacetime and travel • Biology, animal representations, bio-engineering, and posthumanism • Environmental science and ecology • Robotics, artificial intelligence, computer sciences, and technology • The Mathematician/Scientist character type • The quantum observer
Suggested texts to accompany these topics can be found on the attached generic syllabus. Sample Course Assignments: Researched Narrative of a Paradigm Shift Each student will identify a paradigm shift in their respective or potential discipline/major/area of study and compose a research paper describing the pre-shift conditions of the field, the cause of a shift in thought, and the effect of the shift on the field and larger culture/world. Mathematics and Science as a Theoretical Framework Students will use an element of science or mathematics as a theoretical framework to further an analysis of a reading from the course material (and/or material outside the course, possibly related to field of study). This assignment may be repeated multiple times, accompanying different texts. Consilience and Reconciliation Each student will compose a researched essay in response to E.O. Wilson’s call: “The greatest enterprise of the mind has always been and will always be the attempted linkage of science and humanities…literally a 'jumping together' of knowledge by the linking of facts and fact-based theories across disciplines to create a common groundwork of explanation” (Consilience: The Unity of Knowledge). Students must use the lessons of the course and outside research in order to offer a framework of unification for the humanities and sciences, making particular note of the effect of such a union. Other information:
• Suggested basis for student grading and criteria for evaluating student performance • College attendance policy (see current Student Handbook) • College plagiarism statement (see current Student Handbook) • Suggested assessment methodologies See attached generic syllabus.
Please attach a generic syllabus for this new course.

How does the course support general education? Using the chart below, indicate the degree or level of connection between the course and outcome as indicated here.
Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 149 of 163
I – Introductory/Background – There is an indirect relationship between the course and the outcome. The outcome itself is not the focus of the course but at least one element of the course serves as a building block to the achievement of the final outcome. For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome. M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not. E – Emphasized – There is a direct relationship between the course and the outcome. At least one element of the course focuses specifically on the complex integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to perform the outcome.

Student Learning Outcomes Upon completion of this course, students will be able to:
• Use the disciplinary and analytical methods of the Humanities to approach, understand, and analyze Mathematics and Science
• Employ Mathematics and Science as theoretical lenses to analyze traditional text types in the Humanities, providing clarity to those texts
• Utilize the interdisciplinary methodology of the course to offer a model of unification for the Humanities with Mathematics and Science
• Use the interdisciplinary methodology of this course to approach problems critically in unique and novel ways
There are, of course, numerous other goals that will be realized as the semester progresses. Teaching Procedures Students are expected to come to class each day having completed all readings and assignments, as well as being prepared to contribute to the class discussions. Students will participate in discussions analyzing assigned readings with particular focus on employing the course methodologies, while offering personal insights into the texts. Further, students will compose researched essays and projects to demonstrate internalization and ability with the course materials and methods. Generally, assignments reserve room for students to use their personal majors/areas of study to further retention and establish a cohesive educational framework. Further procedures to be determined by instructor. Attendance Policy Students are expected to attend classes at the scheduled meeting times. Further details to be determined by instructor. Grading Policy Specific assignments and their values to be determined by instructor. Grading Scale:
100-93: A 92-90: A- 89-87: B+ 86-83: B 82-80: B- 79-77: C+ 76-73: C 72-70: C- 69-60: D 59 and below: F
Academic Honesty Plagiarism means taking someone else's ideas or words and presenting them as one's own. The offense can take many forms including cheating on a test, passing in a paper taken from the Internet or from another student, or failing to properly use and credit sources in an essay. Sometimes the issue is subtle, involving getting too much help on an assignment from someone else. In every instance, plagiarism means cheating both oneself and the
Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 152 of 163
owner of the source. Since the cheating sabotages a student's learning experience, consequences range from no credit for the assignment to failure for the course and possible expulsion from the college.

Provide a rationale for the proposed new program including a narrative for each of the following: • How the need for this new program or certificate was determined:
o A 2014 campus-wide survey of student interest in possible Liberal Arts optionsfound that 33% of respondents were interested in an English option. Thisranked #1 out of twelve possible options. See Arpi Payaslian’s 2014 SabbaticalReport, page 6.
o The Liberal Arts/English Option is a result of a year long initiative by theDepartment of Higher Education to create a Mass Transfer Pathway in English.The goal of the initiative is to ensure the seamless transfer of courses taken atQCC to a four-year Massachusetts state college or university.
o By establishing a Liberal Arts/English Option QCC will be on a par with sisterinstitutions in Massachusetts that offer such options within their Liberal Artsprograms.
• How the program was designed:o The program is designed to conform to (a) the Liberal Arts Program and (b) the
Mass Transfer Pathway in English. The English courses in the option are theones accepted under the Transfer Pathway.
• How the new program or certificate was reviewed, approved, or developed:
Academic Matters - December 13, 2016 Page 156 of 163
o The program conforms to the curriculum of the Liberal Arts Program, which wasdeveloped through an APR conducted in 2015.
o The English curriculum conforms to the Mass Transfer Pathway agreementbetween Massachusetts public community colleges and 4-year institutions.
• If a program goal is employment upon completion, please comment on job titles,demonstrated regional employer interest in hiring graduates, and wage analysis (consultwith IRaP office) – Not Applicable.
• If a program goal is transfer upon completion, please consult with the Coordinator ofTransfer Affairs and Articulation and provide a plan for transfer/articulations withbaccalaureate institutions
o The program conforms to the curriculum of the Liberal Arts Program, whichmeets the Mass Transfer Block.
o The English curriculum conforms to the set of English courses that the 4-yearschools agreed to accept for transfer.
Does any aspect of the proposed program affect another department? Please confer with the coordinators of affected departments. Affected department(s): Liberal Arts
For an associate degree program, does the proposed program meet the general education credit requirement for Mass Transfer? YES
If no, please provide a rationale.
Does the program or certificate qualify for financial aid? YES Check with the Director of Financial Aid and fill out the Gainful Employment Form as needed.
Will any of the following be required: Additional staff _NO__ Additional space _NO___ Additional equipment _NO__ Provide a rationale for any needs indicated and include approximate cost of equipment.
Start-up collection of library resources in support of this program: $2,500
List the PROGRAM STUDENT LEARNING OUTCOMES in the table below. Indicate the course or courses that will fulfill each outcome and indicate the degree or level of connection between the course and outcome as indicated here.
I – Introductory/Background – There is an indirect relationship between the course and the outcome. The outcome itself is not the focus of the course but at least one element of the course serves as a building block to the achievement of the final outcome. For example, course elements may provide the knowledge, skills or attitudes necessary for the ultimate achievement of the outcome. M – Intermediate/Transitional - There is more of a direct relationship between the course and the outcome than Introductory. A mixture of course elements supports the final achievement of the outcome, but the final integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary for its achievement is not accomplished in this course. For example, knowledge, skills and/or attitudes (at least 2 of the 3) required for achievement of the outcome may be the focus of the course or course element, but the integration of all three is not. E – Emphasized – There is a direct relationship between the course and the outcome. At least one element of the course focuses specifically on the complex integration of knowledge, skills and attitudes necessary to perform the outcome.
