  1. C-ID, Model Curriculum, and CTE

  2. Preview • Course Identification Numbering System • AKA C-ID • Model Curriculum • Certificates • Degrees (“terminal” AS degrees) • Transfer Model Curriculum (AA-T/AS-T) • Discussion/questions

  3. What is C-ID? • Course Identification Numbering System • Products • Course descriptors • Processes • Convening of intersegmental faculty for descriptor development • Statewide vetting of draft descriptors • Submission of course outlines of record (CORs) for faculty review • COR review process

  4. What does C-ID do? • Provides a numerical “tag”, a C-ID designation, for courses that match an intersegmentally developed descriptor • Provides a means of identifying comparable courses and of ensuring course portability within the CCCs • Addresses the need for “common course numbers” • When a college submits a COR to obtain a C-ID designation, they are agreeing to accept other courses with that C-ID designation in lieu of their native course

  5. What does C-ID do? • Provides a process for one-to-many articulation • Any university can opt to articulate C-ID descriptors, effectively granting articulation to all colleges that have a course matching a given descriptor • “descriptor-based” articulation • Offers a quality control and model for required courses in the TMCs (transfer model curricula) that are the basis of the statewide response to SB 1440 (AA-T/AS-T degrees)

  6. Characteristics of C-ID Faculty-driven Initially intersegmental “Student-serving” Enables CCCs to work like a system while maintaining local control of curriculum

  7. Course Descriptors include: Course description Units; labs Prerequisites Content Objectives Evaluation Texts

  8. C-ID Descriptors • Identify the essential, common components of a course (NOT a complete COR) • Provide enough detail to serve as the basis for articulation • Inform course updates and new course development • Permit identification of comparable courses • Ensures appropriate consistency

  9. Process • Develop draft descriptors • Discipline convening (ex. DIG) • Faculty Discipline Review Group (FDRG) • Vet draft descriptors www.c-id.net • Finalize descriptors • Seek articulation with universities • (if appropriate) • Seek COR submissions from CCCs

  10. Types of Model Curriculum • Certificates • “Terminal” Degrees (AA/AS) • Transfer Model Curricula (TMC) Associate Degrees for Transfer (AD-T) • Is there value in having some “standardization” in curricula across colleges, at the course level and beyond?

  11. Questions to Consider • How does the curriculum across colleges compare? • Are you teaching comparable courses? • What certificates do you offer? Are they comparable? • If you have degrees, are they comparable?

  12. Questions to Consider Where there is not comparability, should there be? Would it benefit students to have C-ID descriptors for your courses? Would consistency/comparability across the colleges with respect to certificates and degrees have value?

  13. IF it is determined that having C-ID descriptors make sense... What next?

  14. Next steps Identify common courses If the number of common courses is large, identify what sub-set of your common offerings would most likely be found in a certificate and/or degree Develop descriptors

  15. Certificates If model curricula are to be developed for certificates, how structured should they be? Does it make sense to develop model curricula for both “local certificates” and “certificates of achievement”? Should options be permitted?

  16. Transfer Model Curricula (TMCs) A special form of model curriculum, developed collaboratively with CSU Disciplines for TMC development determined by the Intersegmental Curriculum Workgroup TMC approach to structure may be useful for the development of certificates and terminal degrees TMCs must conform to unit limits established in Education Code TMC-aligned degrees confer defined benefits on students

  17. TMC Structure Common “core” Additional courses selected from list (s) Total 18 units (minimum – required for a degree) Some courses may be in related fields

  18. Example TMC: Psychology Total units 18-21 Required Core: (9-11 units) • Elementary Statistics (3-4 units) • General Psychology (3 units) • Research Methods in Psychology (3-4 units)

  19. List A: Select one of: • Intro Biology (3-4) • Human Biology (3-4) • Intro to Biological Psychology (3-4) List B: Select one of: (3 units) • Any List A course not used above or • Any course that has articulation as lower division major prep for the psych major at a CSU

  20. List C (up to 3 units) Any courses not selected above, any CSU transferable psychology course, and/or other courses that are lower division preparation for the psychology major at a university - in or outside of the discipline.

  21. Tasks for today Discuss whether or not C-ID makes sense for your discipline… IF it does not, have a great day! IF it does…..

  22. Tasks for today Identify courses for which C-ID descriptors should be developed Draft new C-ID course descriptors Discuss whether or not model curriculum for certificates and degrees makes sense IF it does, develop draft model certificates and degrees

  24. TipsIt helps if we can. . . Maintain statewide perspectives. (Local campuses always have idiosyncrasies).  Think of student pathways—not only pathways for your current, local programs. Consider challenges of smaller colleges. Consider allowing for some local options/choices. Seek double-counting opportunities. Ensure you + colleagues are on your listserv!

  25. Next steps • Indicate your interest in continuing service. • ASCCC and ASCSU will appoint faculty to FDRG if formation of an FDRG is determined to be appropriate • If courses are not intended for transfer, a new form of discipline-based coordinating committee will be formed

  26. Next steps Senate-appointed Discipline Review Group will review the developed drafts The Discipline Review Group will draft and vet updated, C-ID course descriptors and model curriculum The Discipline Review Group reviews the statewide input Be sure you’re on listserv (& colleagues)---to stay informed

  27. Thanks for being here!

  28. Legislative Background “Existing law requires the Board of Governors of the California Community Colleges to develop, maintain, and disseminate a general common course numbering system for use by community college districts.” SB 1415 (2004)
