Overview Five Year Review CTE and C-ID Area of Emphasis TMCs Model Curriculum Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 20162

General Updates 3Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

General Updates 37 TMCs now available for local ADT development As of March2016: courses have received determinations (total for approved, conditional, and not approved columns) (88.7%) 16,630 courses receiving a C-ID designation (approved or conditional) (95.0%) Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Course Review Updates High volume of work from faculty reviewers in past year: 21 disciplines have fewer than 10 courses in queue 9 disciplines have 10 – 20 courses in queue 4 disciplines have 20 – 40 4 disciplines have 50 – disciplines have 100 – 200 Engineering Film, Television, and Electronic Media Agriculture Studio Arts: 700+ completed review, 456 in queue, 370 with no CSU reviewer. Forthcoming TMC changes to address backlog. Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Five Year Review Speech Communications, Psychology, and Sociology were the first disciplines to complete their five year review. There were no major changes. 11 disciplines currently going through five-year review: o Administration of Justice, Physics, Early Childhood Education, Political Science, Geology, Studio Arts, History, Theater Arts, Kinesiology, Mathematics, and Computer Science Working with FDRGs on reviews, emphasizing the impact of changes to existing C-ID descriptors and TMCs. 6Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

New and In-progress TMCs New TMCs released on February 1: Public Health Science Child and Adolescent Development Global Studies (AOE) Social Justice Studies (AOE) Under Development based on previous faculty work Environmental Science Graphic Design Hospitality Management Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

ADT Obligation The requirement to create an Associate Degree for Transfer if your college has an existing Associate Degree in the same TOP code began on August 30. If you haven’t been able to create an ADT, please contact the Chancellor’s Office. Colleges are not being asked to deactivate existing degrees if they are unable to comply with SB440. Chemistry and Biology ADTs will be due in September 2016 New TMCs require degrees to be developed 18 months after posting 8Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Math 110 (Statistics) Resolution 9.13 F15 included the following: Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges convene the Math C-ID Faculty Discipline Review Groups (FDRG) to consider alternative prerequisites for C-ID Math 110, Introduction to Statistics; and Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges convene the Math Basic Skills FDRG to initiate development of descriptors for alternative prerequisites for statistics. The Math FDRG has meet and proposed the following revised prerequisite: Eligibility for college-level mathematics as determined by college assessment or other appropriate methods Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 20169

Math 110 (Statistics) A memo/ has been distributed to mathematics faculty, senate presidents, and curriculum chairs to begin vetting the proposed descriptor. If the proposed descriptor is adopted, the FDRGs for disciplines where Math 110 is included in the approved TMC will need to evaluate whether the descriptor is still appropriate for that degree. Changes to those TMCs could require a reevaluation of similar. Also keep in mind Section 66748(c) of California Education Code (c) The California State University shall not require students transferring pursuant to this article to repeat courses that are similar to those taken at the community college that counted toward the associate degree for transfer granted pursuant to Section Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23,

C-ID for CTE and Basic Skills 11Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

C-ID for CTE C-ID for CTE began with Addiction Studies, Automotive Technology, Commercial Music, Culinary Arts, Emergency Medical Services, and Biotechnology In Fall 2015, DIG meetings were held for Health Occupations/Allied Health Preparation - Radiologic Technology, Respiratory Therapy, Medical Assistant, Diagnostic Medical Sonography, Office Technology/Office Computer Applications/Business Information Worker, Small Business and Entrepreneurship, Hospitality – Culinary Arts, Welding Technology. In Spring 2016, DIG meetings were held for Real Estate, Paralegal, Environmental Control Technology, Energy Systems Technology, Industrial Systems Technology and Maintenance, Water and Wastewater Technology, Machining and Machine Tools Focus on the development of both descriptors and Model Curricula, including certificates. Great progress! Dozens of new descriptors and MC for certificates. 12Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

C-ID for CTE The development of C-ID and Model Curriculum certificates for CTE helps to create a uniform set of standards for CTE programs. These standards help colleges guarantee that students have the skills that employers are looking for. The development of these descriptors and model curriculum is done in collaboration with discipline faculty, industry partners, sector navigators, and deputy sector navigators. These descriptors are mostly for CCCs only, but some may transfer to the CSU 13Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

C-ID, Model Curriculum, CTE and The WFTF The recommendations from the Taskforce on Workforce, Jobs, and a Strong economy calls for the development of CTE Model Curriculum. Develop CTE Model Curriculum o Align model curriculum with high schools and adult education to enable articulation, dual enrollment and CTE pathways between high schools, adult education and California community colleges. o Collaborate with high school, adult education and California community college educators on the development of model curriculum o A presentation on C-ID and the WFTF Recommendations will happen today at 3:45 in room 301! 14Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

C-ID and Basic Skills Basic skills descriptors in Math and English have been drafted and vetting was completed in September. Math currently discussing additional descriptors for alternate pathway courses. ESL is still discussing possible descriptor development. Alignment with these descriptors would make it easier for basic skills students to change colleges These descriptors will be aligned to the CAI assessment competencies to assist colleges as they prepare for the Common Assessment Test 15Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Area of Emphasis (AoE) TMCs 16Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Area of Emphasis (AoE) TMCs Mandated by SB 440 Used for majors without a high transfer volume warranting single-discipline TMC Interdisciplinary Single AOE TMC feeds multiple majors at CSU and may be used to develop more than one ADT CCC While AOE TMCs are general, local degrees may be specific Each AOE TMC will have a unique TOP code, so there is no requirement for colleges to develop an ADT in these areas! 17Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

First AoE TMCs Social Justice Studies units in area of emphasis 9-unit core Global Studies/International Relations 21 units in area of emphasis 6-unit core, both defined by new C-ID descriptors The finalized Chancellor’s Office Templates were posted on February 1. 18Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Social Justice Studies Designed to meet lower division requirements for multiple CSU majors, including, but not limited to the following: Africana / African American Studies; Ethnic Studies; Asian / Asian American Studies; Chicano/Chicana Studies; LGBT Studies; Women’s, Gender, and Sexuality Studies; Modern Jewish Studies; Native American Studies; Diversity Studies; Critical Race, Gender, and Sexuality Studies. This list is not meant to be exhaustive. Additional majors, options, or concentrations that focus on a particular population may also be served by this TMC. 19Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Global Studies Designed to meet lower division requirements for multiple CSU majors, including: Global Studies, Global Politics, International Relations, International Studies, International Relations and Comparative Government. 20Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

New AoE in Progress Have convened DIGs for Law and Public Policy area of emphasis. Based on existing Pathways to Law programs at multiple community colleges. Potential AoE by fall. Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23,

Using AoE TMCs Previous TMCs were designed to create a single degree that aligned to the TMC and transferred into a single major. Area of Emphasis TMCs are broad and colleges could develop multiple degrees that align with a single TMC. For instance: Social Justice Studies TMC could be used to develop ADTs in Women’s Studies, Latin American Studies, LGBT Studies, and Africana/African American Studies at a single college. 22Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

At Your Campus How can you help your faculty develop these new degrees? Educate your faculty regarding AOEs. These TMCs are designed to serve a wide range of majors that individually do not have enough transfer students, but could be grouped together to serve a wide range of major. Even though each degree will have the same core courses, colleges can create multiple degrees to serve various student populations. Local degrees can be very specific for a single major or broad to cover multiple majors. 23Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Additional AOE TMCs SB440 requires us to develop two more AOE TMCs by September 1, Law and Public Policy held a DIG meeting on April 2 nd in Ontario and will hold another DIG meeting on April 30 th near the San Francisco Airport. Do any currently approved TMCs look more like an AOE than a traditional single discipline TMC? 24Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Other Updates and Topics 25Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Model Curriculum Model curriculum (MC) is a curricular structure collaboratively developed by discipline faculty for a certificate or a degree that specifies the required and optional courses that comprise a locally offered award that is recognized statewide as MC-aligned. Two types: CCCMC Intrasegmental ISMC Intersegmental 26Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Why Have Model Curriculum? Could provide transfer benefits to students when universities have agreed to recognize an MC and offer students locally-defined benefits. May facilitate meeting employer needs for specified training. Can establish appropriate program consistency in awards across the colleges. Could facilitate student goal completion by simplifying student movement between colleges and honoring completed coursework through reciprocity 27Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Reciprocity for Model Curriculum Course reciprocity as established for TMCs. Consistency in MC-aligned degrees across colleges – MCs for degrees must identify the GE options permissible – Local Transfer Transfer for STEM No local graduation requirements. 28

Next Steps for Model Curriculum Work with universities to determine if degrees Intersegmental Model Curriculum can help transfer students Develop process for recognizing and signaling model curriculum alignment. Associate of Arts MC Aligned Degrees Associate of Science MC Aligned Degrees Certificate of Achievement MC Establish means of ensuring colleges align with model curriculum in the same way they develop degrees that align with TMCs 29Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

UC Transfer Pathways The University of California (UC) has developed a common set of transfer preparation (called a UC Transfer Pathway) for students planning to transfer to a UC campus.UC Transfer Pathway The following 21 majors have been completed: Anthropology, Biochemistry, Biology, Business Administration, Cell Biology, Chemistry, Communication, Computer Science, Economics, Electrical Engineering, English, Film and Media Studies, History, Mathematics, Mechanical Engineering, Molecular Biology, Philosophy, Physics, Political Science, Psychology, and Sociology Completion of these transfer pathways do not guarantee students admission into the UC system! Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23,

UC Transfer Pathways and C-ID In October 2015, representatives from ASCCC and C-ID made a presentation to the UC Academic Council about C-ID. While the UC has never been prevented from participating in C-ID, the project’s transfer descriptors were developed for students transferring to a CSU campus. The discussions are preliminary, but there is a possibility that UC campuses could begin accepting courses based upon having a C-ID designation. UC Transfer Pathways do not currently list C-ID course designations, but there is a possibility that they could be added in the future. Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23,

UC Transfer Pathways vs ADT UC Transfer PathwayADT Does not guarantee admissionGuarantees admission with junior standing No unit restrictionsRestricted to a maximum number of units Does not require students to complete general education Students must complete CSU GE Breadth or IGETC A collection of major preparation courses that does not necessarily lead to a degree Students will earn an Associate Degree for Transfer (ADT) Complete major preparation packageMay not include all major preparation courses due to unit restrictions Students may need to complete more than 60 semester/90 quarter units after transfer Students are only required to complete 60 semester/90 quarter units after transfer Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23,

Course Substitutions and Reciprocity in ADTs Matter of local policy, but must retain alignment with TMC. Process should rely on professional judgment of discipline faculty. Guidance on local policy provided in the ASCCC Reciprocity document: September_12_2013.pdf Do we need clearer guidelines for the development of local policy? 33Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Communications with C-ID Articulation Officers are the primary conduit of information to and from C-ID. If you need to know something or have a concern, start with your AO. ALL communications to C-ID go to Questions will be routed to appropriate person(s) who will then respond in a timely fashion. 34Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016

Summary Stay posted from updates from the five year review process. Encourage your CTE faculty to engage in descriptor and MC development and review. Review basic skills descriptors and consider submitting your basic skills courses for C-ID designations Prepare for the new AOE TMCs by creating courses in the required core. 35Spring Plenary Session, April 21 – 23, 2016
