Justification and Assessment
Next
  • Rationale*
    (See also attached document). The CS department currently offers the following four courses in Area D2, which are only applicable to non-science majors: ● CS 1030 - Introduction to Computer Concepts ● CS 1300 - Introduction to Computer Science ● CS 1301 - Computer Science I ● CS 1302 - Computer Science II As a part of the development of the assessment plans for each core area, the CS department has reviewed each core course in terms of: 1) The majors enrolled in the course, and 2) The course’s fit in meeting the core area learning outcomes. Of these courses, it was found that 1) CS 1301 and CS 1302 are major-only courses with CS 1301 also being an Area F course for Mathematics majors and Physics majors with a Computational Physics emphasis, and 2) these two courses do not directly assess either Area D learning outcome. Against this backdrop and the fact that CS 1030 and CS 1300, both courses taken by non-science majors, would remain in Core Area D2 for non-science majors, the department recommends that CS 1301 and CS 1302 be removed from Core Area D2. (Note: all COSM chairs reported that this change would not affect their majors. See Appendix A.) Item to note: As a part of this review, the department also reviewed the core curriculum requirements at Georgia Southern, Georgia State, Kennesaw State, and Valdosta State. Of these four institutions only Georgia Southern - IT 2531 - Introduction to Cyber Security; and Georgia State - CSC 1010 - Computers and Applications; offered any information technology related courses in Area D.
    Modifying course numbers is not permitted. If this is a course number change you must delete the previous course and add the course under the new number.
  • If making changes to the Student Learning Outcomes, please provide the updated SLOs in a numbered list format.
