Fulton Curriculum Reform
WELCOME TO
THE FULTON SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS CURRICULUM REFORM WEBSITE
The purpose of this site is to serve as a home base and resource
for all things related to the Fulton Curriculum Reform
initiative, particularly for Fulton faculty
as they enhance their courses within the reformed
curriculum and, beginning Fall 2008, as
all Fulton faculty begin to offer those courses, most of them
for the first time.
As of Friday, August 22,
2008, this site contains the items
listed below (which also appear under "Resources," to the left).
Between now and the beginning of classes (on September 2),
however, the main focus of this site will shift to the
front-burner reform issues associated with the coming year, such
as delivery of the reformed curriculum, enhanced course
evaluation and program assessment, and ongoing course and
faculty development (including how we might take fuller
advantage of the Course Enhancement Menu and of the reform in
general). This said, though, since we will continue to
provide FCC/UCC with enhanced syllabus packets, as course cycles
continue to roll out over the next couple of years, this site
will also always contain the following:
*Basic documents concerning the Fulton Reform,
including:
-
the March 2007 Fulton Reform proposal
-
A brief summary sheet regarding the Reform, including the
Reform's effect on SU's General Education model
-
the Fulton Curriculum Reform Enhancement
Menu and COMAR regulations
-
the Fulton
Reform Syllabus Cover Sheet (also available via its own link)
*The
Fulton Curriculum Reform Resource Binder.
This
is an online PDF version of the binder
distributed to faculty at the August 2007
Fulton Curriculum Reform Workshops. The binder is not a
manual, but a resource book to which other items will be added.
*23
"Frequently Asked Questions,"
listed under
"FAQ."
*Sample
syllabus cover sheets and enhanced syllabi from
colleagues across Fulton, listed as
"Sample Syllabi" under
"Resources" to the left.
*The
Fulton Reform Syllabus Cover Sheet.
This document is also available
within the "Documents" item listed to the left as well, but it
is also provided here under its own title with one-click access
for greater convenience to Fulton faculty.
*The
Fulton Reform Universal Syllabus Statement.
This
statement, or one similar to it, must appear on all Fulton enhanced syllabi.
To
access the
information we are currently providing to students regarding the
Reform via their own website, please click
here.
This site will be
updated later this summer. It should also be noted that
information concerning the reform has already been shared this
summer with incoming freshmen and transfer students, and a
campaign aimed at continuing to communicate information about
the reform to new students--and to all students--will begin on
multiple fronts just before the new academic year starts and
will continue into the fall and beyond.
Please make suggestions and comments regarding this
site to Dr. Keith Brower, Associate Dean,
Fulton School of Liberal Arts (khbrower@salisbury.edu).
