Fulton Curriculum Reform
WELCOME TO
THE FULTON SCHOOL OF LIBERAL ARTS CURRICULUM REFORM WEBSITE
The primary
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.
(Note: If you are new to Fulton and the reform,
"FAQ"--prepared in Summer 2007 and
listed under "Resources," to the left--might make a good first
stop on your visit to this site.)
Upcoming
Event (Friday, December 4, 3:00-5:00 p.m.): Fulton Forum on
Study Abroad as a Fulton course enhancement.
All Fulton faculty are invited to attend an open
discussion of the issues, challenges and strategies involved in
including a study abroad experience in an enhanced Fulton
course. Light refreshments will be served.

Reform Brown
Bags: Many thanks to
everyone who attended the Fulton Curriculum
Reform Brown Bag Series
during 2008-2009
(a schedule for the series is posted to the
right). The series was
designed to provide Fulton faculty with reform-related course
and faculty development opportunities, particularly regarding a
number of Enhancement Menu options that allow students to engage
in active learning experiences made possible--or more easily
integrated into a course--by the reform. There were also
Brown Bag event at the end of each semester in which attendees shared
with colleagues their experiences with the reform and the
enhancements they had employed in their courses.
For Fulton faculty who may have missed a
particular Brown
Bag event focusing on a specific type of course enhancement, selected notes from each of these events are posted
in the menu to the left, under "Brown Bag Notes."
What's new with
the reform: Beginning
Fall 2009 syllabi for Fulton courses will no longer need to
contain the "Universal Syllabus Statement" (though the text for
the Statement is still available in the menu to the right), as
students--both freshmen and upperclassmen who took Fulton
courses in the former 3-credit-course model--are now aware of
the reform.
What's ongoing:
As always, Fulton
faculty are encouraged to avail themselves of the many items
listed under "Resources," to the left. If you are working on enhancing a course and/or building an
enhanced syllabus packet for FCC/UCC review (though there are
very few such cases left at this point), you may want to go
right to the Fulton Reform Syllabus Cover Sheet, and perhaps also take a look at the
collection of sample syllabi from already-approved enhanced
syllabus packets (though this collection is no longer being
updated with new packets).

combined, etc.), COMAR regulations as they relate to enhancing a
course, preparing an enhanced syllabus packet, or any other
matters related to the reform (as well as questions or
suggestions regarding this site), please contact:
