Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum Agenda Item: Meeting Date: Presenter(s):

5.1 April 5, 2017 Jennifer Au, Wayne Podrouzek, Simon Crothers, Valerie Warren, Wayne Tebb

Agenda Item: Revisions to the Criteria for Quantitative Courses

Action Requested:

Motion to Approve Discussion Information Education

Recommended Resolution:

THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum endorse the changes to the criteria for quantitative courses and recommend approval to Senate.

Senate Standing Committee Report:

For Senate Office Use Only

Context & Background:

The Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum (SSCC) established the Quantitative Courses Working Group with the following mandate: • To review the existing criteria for granting quantitative (Q) designation for

courses and to update them if need be; • To consult with faculty members across all Faculties to determine if there is

interest in adding a quantitative requirement to bachelor’s degrees other than the Bachelor of Arts (BA) degrees;

• To review the membership composition of the existing Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses to determine whether or not it needs to be expanded to include faculty with subject expertise outside of the Faculty of Arts and the Faculty of Science and Horticulture.

Consultations: Quantitative Courses Working Group

Attachments: 1. Proposed revisions to the Criteria for Quantitative Courses 2. SSCC Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses (Q Committee)

Submitted by: Jennifer Au, Vice Chair, Senate Date submitted: February 14, 2017

Key Messages:

1. The Quantitative Courses Working Group met on January 3rd and February 14th of 2017 and recommended an amendment to criterion H of the quantitative courses criteria. This amendment provides clarity to course developers regarding how the Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses has been evaluating courses for Q designation. 2. The feedback that the working group received from the Faculty Curriculum Committees is that while not all committees are supportive of adding a quantitative requirement to all bachelor’s degrees at KPU, there is support for programs to voluntarily add a quantitative requirement to their degrees if they wish to do so. To that end, the working group proposed to amend the title and the first sentence of the BA quantitative criteria document to reflect its more generalized use for bachelor’s degrees at KPU as may be required.

BA Degree Criteria for Quantitative Courses at KPU Requirement Guidelines

To be listed as a quantitative course for the purposes of the Bachelor of Arts bachelor’s

degrees as may be required, courses must have quantitative reasoning (e.g., numerical,

geometric, statistical, or probabilistic), or formal reasoning (e.g., mathematical or

logically deductive), or scientific reasoning (involving the scientific method in general,

and/or the methodology or content of a specific scientific discipline) as a basic principle

in their primary subject matter. These courses may vary widely in the skills that are

emphasized, but they usually include at least two of the following:

A. Learning to read, construct, interpret, and evaluate arguments, tables, graphs, and

charts.

B. Developing quantitative measures of physical, behavioral, or social phenomena.

C. Using mathematical models or forecasting equations to express causal relationships

and to explore the implications of changed assumptions or proposed solutions to

problems.

D. Collecting, organizing, and interpreting numerical data from archives, surveys, lab

experiments, or other sources to reach conclusions and/or draw inferences.

E. Testing hypotheses through the scientific method using experimental or statistical

controls.

F. Assessing the limitations of research, such as the reliability and validity of measures,

adequacy of experimental design, sample size and quality, and alternative hypotheses and

interpretations.

G. Describing and exploring fundamental scientific principles.

H. Using operations with abstract symbols or equations. Developing one or more

equations or mathematical expressions to model a given situation, and using

mathematical operations to manipulate them.

SSCC Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses

Report from the Vice Chair of Senate and Chair of SSCC The SSCC Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses (Q Committee) was constituted by Senate on October 6, 2008 with delegated authority to approve courses for quantitative (Q) designation for use by Bachelor of Arts (BA) students. As partial fulfillment of the curricular requirements for the Bachelor of Arts Degree Framework, all BA students are required to complete at least 9 credits of Q courses, 3 credits of which must be from the Faculty of Science and Horticulture. Courses proposed for Q designation are evaluated by the Q Committee in accordance with the criteria as set out by the committee and approved by Senate: http://www.kpu.ca/senate/committees/curriculum/sscc-qualifying/q-requirements The Q Committee is composed of three faculty members with subject expertise in Q courses. The current membership is as follows:

Faculty of Arts: Wayne Podrouzek (Psychology), Chair

Faculty of Science and Horticulture: Michael Nyenhuis (Mathematics), Suzanne Pearce (Chemistry) The Q committee does not normally report the outcomes of its decisions to SSCC or to Senate. The committee’s decisions are reported to the Vice Chair of Senate, who signs off the course outlines with Q designation approved or not approved, on behalf of Senate. All courses approved for Q status (effective September 1, 2016) are listed in the 2016-17 University Calendar: http://www.kpu.ca/calendar/2016-17/courses/quantitative.html After the 2016-17 University Calendar was published, the Q Committee had reviewed 28 courses, of which seven courses were approved for Q designation; these will be effective on September 1, 2017. Please see the table on the following page for an inventory of courses reviewed. The Q Committee had rejected BUQU 1130 and 20 Accounting courses for Q designation, and no rationale was provided. The Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum (SSCC) expressed concern about the lack of accountability in the Q committee’s work. At the March 1, 2017 meeting of SSCC, the committee reviewed proposed changes to criterion H of the BA degree quantitative criteria. This proposed change appeared to make the Q criteria more stringent. SSCC was informed that the Q Committee had rejected BUQU 1130 and the 20 Accounting courses based on the existing BA degree quantitative criteria. On reviewing the existing criteria, SSCC did not understand why its subcommittee had denied Q status to 20 of the 21 Accounting courses. To that end, SSCC requested that the Chair of the Q Committee attend the April 5th SSCC meeting to articulate why the Q committee did not approve all the Accounting courses for Q designation. The Chair of the Accounting Department and the Dean of Business had accepted SSCC’s invitation to attend the meeting. Further, members of SSCC felt that the Q criteria should be relaxed to allow courses with arithmetic skills and spreadsheet skills to be approved for Q designation. The committee will be reviewing these criteria with the Q Committee Chair on April 5th.

5.2 April 5, 2017 Jennifer Au, Robert Dearle, Wayne Podrouzek

Agenda Item: Subcommittee Terms of Reference: Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive

Courses (SWIC) and Subcommittee on Quantitative Courses (SQC)

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum approve the terms of reference for the Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive Courses (SWIC) for recommendation to the Senate Governance Committee. THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum approve a name change for the Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses (Q) to the Subcommittee on Quantitative Courses (SQC) and its associated amended terms of reference for recommendation to the Senate Governance Committee.




At the January 9, 2017 meeting of the Senate Governance Committee (SGC), the committee was informed that Senate had constituted the SSCC Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses (Q) on October 6, 2008. However, there is no record of the committee’s terms of reference. To that end, the SGC requested that the Vice Chair of Senate bring forward the terms of reference for the two SSCC subcommittees

• Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive Courses (SWIC), and • Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses (Q)

to the SGC. These would require approval by Senate. The Vice Chair of Senate discussed the request with SSCC on January 11, 2017, and the committee tasked an ad hoc Subcommittee Working Group with drafting the terms of reference. The Subcommittee Working Group comprises the following members:

• Jennifer Au, Vice Chair of Senate and Chair of SSCC • Robert Dearle, Chair, Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive Courses • Wayne Podrouzek, Chair, Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses • Elizabeth Worobec, Dean, Faculty of Science and Horticulture • Zena Mitchell, University Registrar and Secretary of Senate

The ad hoc Subcommittee Working Group met on January 24. It drafted the terms of reference and recommended the following:




5.2 April 5, 2017 Jennifer Au, Robert Dearle, Wayne Podrouzek

• A name change for the Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses (Q) to

a more broad-based Subcommittee on Quantitative Courses (SQC) --SQC would review courses for Q designation, which may be used by any program at KPU.

• Consistency in the terms of reference for all subcommittees of SSCC. • A reporting mechanism and workflow that involves the subcommittees

reporting the courses that satisfy the established criteria to SSCC and SSCC recommending these courses to Senate for approval.

Resource Requirements:

Administrative support from the Senate Office

Implications / Risks:

If a Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive Courses is not constituted by Senate, then there will not be a governance approval process in place to identify a list of writing-intensive courses for students to take. There is currently no record of the terms of reference for the Subcommittee on BA Quantitative Courses, which has delegated authority to approve courses for quantitative status on behalf of Senate. There is considerable risk in not having a reporting structure and a governance appeal mechanism in place.

Consultations: Senate Governance Committee – January 9, 2017

Ad hoc Subcommittee Working Group – January 24, 2017 Quantitative Courses Working Group – February 14, 2017 Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive Courses – March 1, 2017

Key Messages: [maximum of 3, preferably no more than 100 words]

1. The Quantitative Courses Working Group reviewed and endorsed the draft terms of reference for the Subcommittee on Quantitative Courses (SQC) on February 14, 2017. The working group is supportive of adding a faculty representative from the School of Business to SQC.

2. The Subcommittee on Writing-Intensive Courses (SWIC) reviewed and endorsed the draft terms of reference for SWIC on March 1, 2017.

3. The new reporting mechanism will ensure accountability in the work of the subcommittees.

SSCC Subcommittee on Writing Intensive Courses | March 2017

7.1 April 5, 2017 Radhika Kumar Jean Nicolson-Church

Agenda Item: Program Change: Certificate in Health Unit Coordinator

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Certificate in Health Unit Coordinator to Senate, effective September 1, 2017.


On March 8, 2017, the Subcommittee on Course Curriculum (SCC) reviewed the proposed new HAUC 1150, 1160, 1190, 1250, 1260, 1270, 1280 and 1290 courses in support of this program revision and recommended the courses to SSCC.


The Faculty of Health is aligning the HAUC Continuance Requirements with the other programs in the Faculty of Health. The curriculum has been re-designed from modules in succession to full semester length courses to increase rigour and provide opportunities to apply theory in practice settings. In adjusting courses to a semester based format there is an overall 0.5 credit increase from 29.5 to 30.0 credits to align with KPU Policy AR16.





Consultations: Please see the KPU Curriculum Consultation Report and Program Change form.

Attachments: 1. Program Change Form 2. KPU Curriculum Consultation Report HAUC

Submitted by: Radhika Kumar, HUC Program Coordinator


Key Messages:

1. The Continuance Requirements language now aligns with the other programs in the Faculty of Health and the minor 0.5 credit increase in overall program credits means the program is now compliant with KPU Policy AR16.

2. Two General Study’s courses will provide students a link to the Certificate in Health Foundations program. Additionally, students earn credit towards the Certificate in Health Foundations by taking HEAL 1100, Mental Health and Wellness course.

3. Program revisions are in response to faculty and student feedback. Adjusting clinical placement hours and providing new clinical practice experiences will broaden employment opportunities and better prepare graduates for work in the healthcare environment.

Rationale: 1. The Continuance Requirements language now aligns with the other programs in the Faculty of Health.

2. The minor .5 credit increase in program credits from 29.5 to 30 credits results in the program now being in compliance with KPU Policy AR16 for Certificate graduation requirements.

Agenda Item: Program Change: Associate of Arts Degree in English

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Associate of Arts Degree in English, effective September 1, 2017.




The English Department wishes to harmonize the 2000-level requirements for the Associate of Arts (AA) degree in English with the Bachelor of Arts, Major and Minor in English. Identical changes have already been made to the major and the minor, but these were missed for the AA degree; the English department now wishes to apply them to the AA degree. This change is meant to ensure that students seeking an AA degree are not affected by changes to our second-year course offerings resulting from changes to the second-year requirements to the Major and the Minor.

Agenda Item: Program Change: Bachelor of Arts, Major in Asian Studies

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Bachelor of Arts, Major in Asian Studies to Senate, effective September 1, 2017.




The Asian Studies program is proposing changes that will • Facilitate student completion of the degree, • Improve clarity and equitable application, • Improve program identify, and • Meet the recommendations of the Asian Studies program review.


There are no resource requirements associated with this change



Submitted by: Tracey J. Kinney, Coordinator, Asian Studies program

Date submitted: January 16, 2017

Key Messages: The following program changes are proposed: 1. Reduce the requirement that students in the B.A. Major in Asian Studies

complete at least 12 credits at the 4000-level, including the capstone course, to 6 credits at the 4000-level, including the capstone course.

2. Separate the ASIA-acronym courses in the current “core course list” from the courses offered by other departments that can be counted as Asian Studies courses in the B.A. Major in Asian Studies.

3. Remove ASIA 4900, Directed Research Project in Asian Studies, from the current capstone options.

4. Rename the “core course list” “Additional Asian Studies Courses” 5. Rationalize the remaining course on the present “core course list” to ensure

that these courses are still relevant to the degree and are offered on a regular basis.

Proposed Changes: 1. Reduce the requirement that students in the B.A. Major in Asian Studies complete at least 12 credits at the 4000-level, including the capstone course, to 6 credits at the 4000-level, including the capstone course.

2. Separate the ASIA-acronym courses in the current “core course list” from the courses offered by other departments that can be counted as Asian Studies courses in the B.A. Major in Asian Studies.

3. Remove ASIA 4900, Directed Research Project in Asian Studies, from the current capstone options.

4. Rename the “core course list” “Additional Asian Studies Courses” 5. Rationalize the remaining course on the present “core course list” to ensure that these

courses are still relevant to the degree and are offered on a regular basis.

Rationales: 1. With only 1.5 Asian Studies faculty, plus sessionals, students struggle to get enough 4000-level courses to meet this requirement, necessitating frequent course substitutions by the Program Coordinator. The experience of other departments (see History program change – effective Sept 2015) shows that this change will have no impact on the curricular rigour of the degree

2. Separating the two lists will have multiple advantages: a. The calendar copy for the B.A. Major Asian Studies can be streamlined b. Course revisions / additions undertaken by the Asian Studies program will not

require a D-7 program revision because the list of “additional Asian Studies courses” will not be impacted

2

c. Revisions undertaken by other departments that provide courses on the list of “additional Asian Studies courses” can be addressed without impacting the primary calendar copy for the B.A. Major Asian Studies

3. At present there is no funding for directed research projects; including this in the calendar creates the expectation that the course could be offered. The change will focus student attention on the mandatory capstone course.

4. Renaming the list will mean that students focus first and foremost on the courses offered by the Asian Studies program itself (ASIA-acronymed courses). The structure of the current list does not prioritize ASIA courses. This, in turn, will improve program identity (a key recommendation of the recent Asian Studies program review) and, therefore, boost enrolment in ASIA-acronymed courses

5. Currently, some of the courses on the list are either not offered or offered on a limited basis due to faculty changes, other courses have inadequate Asian Studies content to benefit our B.A. Major students. Rationalizing the list will ensure that students can reliably access the remaining courses and that these courses are relevant to their degree.

Agenda Item: Program Change: Bachelor of Science, Major in Physics for Modern Technology

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Bachelor of Science, Major in Physics for Modern Technology to Senate, effective September 1, 2017.


At the January 18, 2017 and March 8, 2017 meetings of the Subcommittee on Course Curriculum (SCC), the committee reviewed the new course outlines (PHYS 4010, 4199, 4299, 4600, and 4700) associated with this program change and recommended the courses to SSCC.


Discussions within the department and with the Advisory Committee have led to some revisions that will be of greater benefit to students in the Bachelor of Science, Major in Physics for Modern Technology.


None


There are no implications.



Submitted by: Elizabeth Worobec, Dean, Faculty of Science and Horticulture



1. Removal of PHYS 4900 from 4th year.

2. Senior project lengthened to two semesters and renumbered from PHYS 4950 to PHYS 4199/4299.

3. Renaming PHYS 4010 from “Quantum and Solid State Physics” to “Quantum Mechanics”; and renaming PHYS 4700 from “Spectroscopic Instrumentation” to “Solid State Physics: Theory and Practice”.

4. The new course outlines associated with this program change are presented to SSCC as part of the SCC report.

Consultations Consultation Date Person Consulted Office of the Provost: N/A Vice Chair of Senate: February 15, 2017 Jennifer Au, Vice Chair, Senate Office of the Registrar: February 2, 2017 Stephen Yezerinac, Associate Registrar Other(s)* (if applicable):


Date on which this program revision was approved. Faculty Curriculum Committee: February 2, 2017 Faculty Council (if required): February 21, 2017 SSC on Curriculum: SSC on University Budget (if required): SSC on Academic Planning and Priorities (if required): Senate:

Proposed Change(s): 1. Program curriculum will be presented year-by-year rather than semester-by-semester.

2. Removal of PHYS 4900 from 4th year.

3. Senior project lengthened to two semesters and renumbered from PHYS 4950 to PHYS 4199/4299.

4. Renaming PHYS 4010 from “Quantum and Solid State Physics” to “Quantum Mechanics”; and renaming PHYS 4700 from “Spectroscopic Instrumentation” to “Solid State Physics: Theory and Practice”.

Rationale: 1. Presenting the curriculum year-by-year is consistent with the calendar descriptions of

other degree programs in the Faculty of Science and Horticulture.

2. Students have already taken a Special Topics course in their 3rd year. Although the original program outline required students to take two Special Topics courses, reducing it to one will make room for lengthening the senior project to two semesters.

3. Discussions within our department and with our Industrial Advisory Committee have led use to the conclusion that a two-semester project will be more beneficial for the students. The increased length will give the students more time to plan their project, allow them to undertake a more substantial project, and increase the likelihood of achieving the desired outcomes. PHYS 4199 will largely involve the project proposal, planning and management, while PHYS 4299 will involve implementation and execution of the project. The new course numbers are consistent with the numbering of multiple-

2

semester projects in other FSH degree programs such as biology and sustainable agriculture.

4. Though quantum mechanics and solid state physics are typically taught over two courses, the original idea of packaging both into one course, PHYS 4010, would permit additional topics to be included in the Physics for Modern Technology program. However, while developing the PHYS 4010 course, it became apparent of the difficulties in covering both topics to a sufficient depth and understanding in just one course. It made more sense to give students a firmer foundation in quantum mechanics (which underpins much of modern physics and technology) and to offer a separate course in solid state physics. The quantum mechanics will be covered in PHYS 4010, renamed, “Quantum Mechanics”, and solid state will be covered in PHYS 4700, renamed, “Solid State Physics: Theory and Practice”. Despite the renaming of PHYS 4700, much of the original content from the proposed PHYS 4700 – Spectroscopic Instrumentation will remain, as spectroscopic techniques are important tools of solid state physicists.

and Drafting

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Citation, Certificate and Diploma in Computer Aided Design and Drafting to Senate, effective September 1, 2017


On March 8, 2017, the Subcommittee on Course Curriculum (SCC) reviewed the new and revised course outlines associated with this program change and recommended the courses to SSCC.


The Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD) program has operated successfully under the current process, but we are looking towards a more flexible approach to manage future needs identified by our recent Program Review and in consultation with our Program Advisory Committee. We refer to this as Outcome Based (flexible) credentialing as compared to the current Prescribed process.


N/A


Attachments: Program Change Form, Appendices 1 and 2

Submitted by: Brian Haugen, Dean, Faculty of Trades and Technology



The purpose of the changes we are proposing are threefold: 1. to allow us to introduce topical and current information, course materials

and new courses into the program in a timely fashion while at the same time maintaining credential validity and industry relevance,

2. to allow us to create more robust and credit applicable degree pathways for our students by developing flexible Academic course selection options in the 3rd and 4th semesters,

3. to update all course outlines and program credentialing language to current style guides and to harmonize this language to remove systemic irregularities that occur over time and change.

From the surface, the proposed CADD program changes appear to be substantive because the program is going from a set of prescribed courses to allowing students to set their own curriculum by choosing most of the courses that they take. That said, the important point in assessing whether or not the proposed revisions are considered substantive is “Do the revisions change the program learning outcomes?” This should be clearly articulated in Appendices 1 and 2.

SSCC will review the program changes and advise the Provost on whether the committee feels that the changes would be deemed as substantive based on the criteria and guidelines set out by the Ministry. The Provost will make the final decision.

CADD TECHNOLOGIES

Appendix 1: Proposed Changes CADD Program Revision from Prescribed to Outcome Based Credentialing February 15, 2017

Existing: The current undergraduate credentialing process in the CADD program is prescribed in that specific courses are identified as “required for credential”. There are three credentialed exit opportunities described as:

Citation -completion of the four first semester courses identified as CADD 1100, CADD 1110, CADD 1150 and CADD 1161 with a credit value of 16 ( 4 x 4 credit courses )

Certificate - completion of the Citation courses identified above and four x 4 credit second semester courses in one of our Specialty options for a total of 32 credits. These options and the courses prescribed for each include:

o Architectural - CADA 1201, CADA 1210, CADA 1220 and CADA 1250 o Structural - CADS 1200, CADS, 1210, CADS 1220 and CADS 1251 o Mechanical - CADI 1210, CADI 1220, CADM 1210, CADM 1250

Diploma - completion of the Citation courses identified above, plus the completion of at least one set of 4 Specialty courses identified above, and:

o 3r and 4th semester CADD courses identified as: CADD 2100, CADD 2110, CADD 2160, CADD 2220 and CADD 2250 (credit value of 20)

o And 4 Academic courses identified as: MATH 1112, BUSI 1210, ENGL 1100 and PHYS 1100 (credit value of 13)

Proposed: The undergraduate credentialing process in the CADD program would change to include robust and flexible language. The three credentialed exit opportunities would be described as:

Citation - completion of four courses of 16 credits total in CADD 1100 level courses, one of which must be 4 credits in CADD 1150

Certificate - completion of the Citation courses identified above and four x 4 credit second semester courses in one of our Specialty options for a total of 32 credits. These specialties and the courses options for each include:

o Architectural - 12 credits in CADA 1200 - 1999 level courses, and 4 credits in CADA 1250 for 16 credits total

o Structural - 12 credits in CADS 1200 - 1999 level courses, and 4 credits in CADS 1251 for 16 credits total

o Mechanical - 12 credits in CADI or CADM 1200 – 1999 level courses and 4 credits in CADM 1250 for 16 credits total

Diploma - completion of the Citation courses identified above, plus the completion of at least one Specialty as identified above, and 33 credits described as:

10 credits in ENGL 1100, MATH 1112 and PHYS 1100 3 additional credits in MATH BUSI, CHEM or PHYS 20 credits in CADD courses at the 2000 level or above

CADD TECHNOLOGIES

Appendix 2 CADD Program Revision from Prescribed to Outcome Based Credentialing February 15, 2017 Overview and Rationale: Total credit value of the Diploma is 65. The program has operated successfully under the current process but we are looking towards a more flexible approach to manage future needs identified by our recent Program Review and in consultation with our Program Advisory Committee. We refer to this as Outcome Based ( flexible ) credentialing as compared to the current Prescribed process. The purpose of the changes we are proposing are threefold:

1) to allow us to introduce topical and current information, course materials and new courses into the program in a timely fashion while at the same time maintaining credential validity and industry relevance,

2) to allow us to create more robust and credit applicable degree pathways for our students by developing flexible Academic course selection options in the 3rd and 4th semesters,

3) to update all course outlines and program credentialing language to current style guides and to harmonize this language to remove systemic irregularities that occur over time and change.

Credential Integrity: The CADD Diploma is not currently subject to third party endorsement or External Accreditation. However, this does not suggest that learning outcomes are subjective. Diploma level outcomes are defined by Industry and Professional standards along with workplace requirements. These outcomes have been identified and described in our 2006 Full Program Proposal (FPP). Our main sources of rigor maintenance include our Program Advisory Committee (PAC), provincial curriculum articulation with our academic peers, and the established standards of other recognized third party accreditation sources such as the Applied Science Technologists and Technicians of British Columbia (ASTTBC). None of these sources is static, they change and evolve with current technologies, innovation, and Industry practice. Our Learning Outcomes in CADD, together with the academic courses in Math, English and Physics which complete the Diploma, are designed to see our Diploma grads meet or exceed Technician level standing and to prepare them for other advanced academic pathways. Our Full Program Proposal states: “Students will be educated in theoretical knowledge and trained in the academic and practical skills and outcomes that industry requires of graduates to be job-ready as a Drafting/CADD person. Particular attention is paid to ensuring that all students gain critical core knowledge, appropriate Drafting/CADD skills, a professional attitude, essential skills, and the academic components necessary to continue on their post-secondary career path.” The challenges we face regularly are; how to meet the commitment to prepare students to be “job-ready”, and how to develop degree pathways and other advanced accreditation opportunities for our students. CADD is no longer a drafting trade as much as it is an applied technology and will continue to evolve with technological changes and product innovation in the workplace environment. We feel that we have been successful in managing our program through this process of evolution so far, however,

CADD TECHNOLOGIES

we also feel that the next stage of evolution will require a better process of introducing a stream of innovation and relevance into our course materials in order to keep pace with industry. The changes proposed in this revision are designed to lay the groundwork for continued and greater success in meeting the commitments stated above from the FPP as we continue to respond to feedback from our sources of industry rigor. We have recently completed a Program Review and believe that this revision proposal follows directly from the outcomes of that review. We do not view this as a substantial change in Learning Outcomes from the current program as outlined in the FPP from 2006. In that proposal, many areas of specialization and advanced training were identified and endorsed by our PAC. These include areas of specialization in Civil and Electrical drafting and design as well as other areas of advanced systems, process and management that we have never had the opportunity to develop or offer. We believe that this revision will allow us a better way to prepare for growth, incorporate and maintain flexibility and relevance while at the same time streamline our efforts with current KPU process and protocols. Integration of Revision: Step 1 Create 5 new courses in Special Topics designed to introduce new and currently relevant information, topics, technology, etc. into course offerings. Five different courses are required in order to maintain credential and course rubric protocols.

Each second semester specialty requires a unique course to identify the rubric and credential granted. The course rubric would be CADA 1900, CADS 1900, CADI 1900 and CADM 1900.

The 5th Special Topics course would be identified as CADD 2900 and used as a 3rd and/or 4th semester ( Diploma ) option.

The course descriptions and rubric have been approved by the Office of the Registrar for CADD’s use. We anticipate that these course outlines will be ready for inclusion into the September 2017 Calendar. The intent is to maintain the same current level of course offerings in that only 4 courses in any given specialty would be offered in any semester, and that only 5 courses at the 2100, 2200 and 2900 levels would be offered in any year. The intent is also that a successful Special Topic course could be able to migrate/transition into a new specific course outline if that was deemed as appropriate. This transition would not require further Program Revisions under the proposed revisions but will follow current new course outline approval processes. Step 2 We will reinforce the existing Educational Plan process already included in the 1st semester CADD 1161 course where students meet with a KPU Ed Advisor prior to the start of a CADD student’s second semester. This will provide students the opportunity to be introduced to and/or be able to identify a degree pathway intent into one of the areas and institutions where we have articulated or recognized

CADD TECHNOLOGIES

this potential. The programs and institutions that we have currently identified include (but are not limited to) :

Thompson Rivers University - Building Science Degree

British Columbia Institute of Technology - Construction Management Degree

Kwantlen Polytechnic University - BBA in Entrepreneurial Leadership - BBA in Human Resources

We anticipate that established degree pathway options will increase over time as students are able to complete articulation with other individual programs and institutions. Students may also initiate their own pathway through the use of BCCAT, Educational Advisors and Transfer Credit Departments and create a unique degree pathway. The intent here is that students with a CADD Diploma will be able to proceed directly into the 3rd year of a degree program with a reduced or eliminated need for a bridging semester to meet the specific degree program prerequisites. If bridging course will be necessary they can be identified early in the process and incorporated into the student’s Ed Plan. The CADD Diploma would continue to include ENGL 1100, MATH 1112 and PHYS 1100 to maintain program rigor but a student will select a fourth course from MATH, PHYS, BUSI or CHEM to complete the Diploma. If a student chooses to identify a degree pathway during the Educational Plan process an appropriate combination of academic courses will be identified to fulfill the CADD Diploma requirement and the Degree pathway. Step 3 Update all current Course Outlines with robust language changes in the areas of “Prerequisites” and “Required for Credential” using current language style guides. We have reviewed this need with the Office of the Registrar and have confirmed wording according to the following directives:

for all 1100 level courses o no prerequisites indicated ( University and Program entry requirements remain ) o Required for Credential to remain blank for all courses except the CADD 1150 course in

CAD software which is to indicate: Citation in Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD), Certificate in Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD) and Diploma in Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD)

For all 1200 and 1900 level courses o Prerequisites to indicate: 16 credits from courses in CADD at the 1100 level o Required for Credential to remain blank for all courses except CADA 1250, CADS 1251

and CADM 1250 courses in Building Information Modelling (BIM) which will indicate: Certificate in Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD) Architectural (etc.) and Diploma in Computer Aided Design and Drafting (CADD)

For all 2100, 2200 and 2900 level courses o Prerequisites to indicate: A minimum of 16 credits from courses in a) CADA or b) CADS

or c) CADI and CADM o Required for Credential will remain blank for all courses.

CADD TECHNOLOGIES

Benefits:

1. This change will allow the CADD program an ability to adapt and change to meet the needs of the fast paced and technology integrated design and drafting industry.

2. The CADD credential validation is maintained as core components and courses remain unchanged as new topics are carefully introduced through the use of the Special Topics courses.

3. The robust and flexible language of the course outlines and credentialing language should reduce unnecessary changes in minor updates requiring Senate approval while maintaining due process and diligence in preserving KPU protocols and credential validation. Minor changes should remain largely in the domain of the CADD faculty, faculty council and curriculum committee with only significant program level revisions requiring higher level attention.

4. This change conforms to the recommendations and conclusions of our recent Program Review and in consultation with our Program Advisory Committee (PAC ).

5. Students of the CADD program will be better served by a robust and established process of degree pathways that will see a larger number of their earned credits applicable as prerequisites into these degree programs.

6. This change will assist in future growth in the CADD department by providing a flexible framework for change and growth.

7. The improved degree pathway process should improve the CADD program’s ability to serve as a feeder program into other degree granting programs where attrition in the 3rd year of such programs is a persistent problem and concern.

8. There are no budgetary impacts with this change as the current course offerings per semester would remain unchanged.

9. If funding for the CADD program increases we will be able to add courses and content both incrementally and/or on a larger scale without the need for a Program Revision to address credentialing, prerequisites and required for credential issues.

7.7 April 5, 2017 Brenda Snaith

Agenda Item: Program Change: Bachelor of Interior Design

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Bachelor of Interior Design to Senate, effective September 1, 2017.




When Policy AC11 (General Education in Degree Programs) was approved by Senate in January of 2009, the policy was meant to replace the Liberal General Education Electives in KPU degree programs. The Bachelor of Interior Design (IDSN) is currently the only KPU program that references the Liberal General Education Electives in the University Calendar. The Interior Design program is also making minor housekeeping changes to the Calendar entry.

Consultations: Please see the Program Change Form.


Submitted by: Brenda Snaith, Program Coordinator, Bachelor of Interior Design



1. Remove the reference to the list of Liberal General Education Electives and generalize the calendar language for general education electives.

2. Remove the section on “Credit for Prior Learning” at the request of the Registrar because this is redundant.

3. Clarified that students must complete and log 80 hours of practical experience in an interior design or architectural firm under the supervision of a registered interior designer. This practical experience can occur anytime during the program but must be completed before Professional Practice 2 in the spring semester of year 4 of the IDSN program.

4. Please note that the changes to the program admissions requirements were previously approved by Senate on October 24, 2016.

For a breakdown of our streams and courses, please see kpu.ca/design/interior-design/courses. Interior Design information sessions are scheduled each fall in order to answer questions from prospective students and to allow applicants to view entry portfolios of current students. These sessions have been of great benefit to those interested in entering the program. Please visit kpu.ca/events to confirm dates, times and location. For more information on the Interior Design program, you may view our department website at: kpu.ca/interiordesign. Student Profile Interior Design students come from a wide variety of backgrounds and vary in age and experience. What they have in common is a passion for sculpting interior space. Often our students have explored other art forms including photography, drawing, illustration, painting, pottery, jewelry making, model making or other kinds of design-focused work. Applicants may come directly from high school, from other post-secondary institutions, or they may be former graduates of design, fine arts, or other related programs. They may also be mature adults who want to make a career change or may have experience in the interior design industry and want to upgrade to a degree. We strongly recommend that interested applicants have solid communication skills, computer and word processing experience, ability to measure and draft, time management skills, and an awareness of the interior design profession. Career Opportunities The career potential for this field is strong. When the economy is strong, building construction increases, and this in turn results in jobs for interior designers. Of course the career potential clearly depends on the individual, their portfolio, and work experience upon graduation. Graduates of the interior design program may work on hospitality and retail design projects, exhibition, theatre/television, and set design, the design of office/corporate or residential projects. Over time, some of our graduates become senior partners in design/architectural firms, and may also go on to start their own firms. You may find more information on the field of Interior Design and salary outlooks on the National Occupational Classification located on the Human Resources and Skills Development Canada website at 'NOC-Interior Design' OR on the WorkBC website under 'Occupations'. Admission Requirements In addition to the School of Design's Admission Requirements, which consist of KPU's undergraduate English Proficiency Requirement, the following program admission requirements apply:

• English 12 with a minimum grade of B (or equivalent) • Portfolio Review and Interview Session*

On 24 October 2016 a change to the admission requirements for this program was approved by Senate. Effective September 2017 the requirement of English 12 with a minimum grade of 'B' (or equivalent) will be removed. KPU's undergraduate English Proficiency Requirement will apply. This change will appear in the 2017-18 University Calendar to be published in June 2017. * Qualified applicants will receive an invitation to the required Portfolio Review and Interview session.

Agenda Item: Changes to the Mathematics Alternatives Table

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum recommend approval of the changes to the Mathematics Alternatives Table, effective September 1, 2017.




The Mathematics Alternatives Table (MAT) was developed over the past two years and implemented in the 2016-17 University Calendar for courses: http://www.kpu.ca/calendar/2016-17/courses/mathalternatives.html After having used the MAT this year, the Chair of Mathematics (Allyson Rozell) and the Chair of ACP Mathematics (Tanya Boboricken) would like to propose some minor changes to the MAT in order to • increase student success rates in courses that use the table for prerequisites, • make the Math Placement Test (MPT) more accessible to students, and • correct a couple of minor typos.

Consultations: • Endorsed by the Faculty Curriculum Committees from Faculties that have

courses or programs that use the MAT: o Academic and Career Advancement Curriculum Committee

(February 24, 2017) o Science and Horticulture Curriculum Committee (March 9, 2017) o Faculty of Health Curriculum Committee (March 17, 2017) o School of Business Curriculum Committee (March 20, 2017)

Key Messages:

The following changes are proposed for the MAT: 1. In Level C1, MATQ 1099 (B-) changed to (B) 2. MATQ 1099 (C) moved from Level E1 to D1 3. In Level F1, Foundations and Pre-Calculus (B+) changed to (B) 4. MATQ 1089 (C) moved from Level G1 to F1 5. In Level G1, Apprenticeship and Workplace 11 (C+) changed to (B) 6. In Level G1, Essentials of Mathematics 11 (C+) changes to (B) 7. For the MPT, “11/15 on Part D of Test” corrected to be “11/20 on Part D of

Test” 8. Under the MPT footnotes (*), removed the requirements for course work

in addition to the MPT score.

Mathematics Alternative Table (MAT) Proposed Changes and Rationales: Allyson Rozell and Tanya Boboricken, Chairs of Mathematics and ACP Mathematics, respectively, are proposing the following changes to the Mathematics Alternatives Table (MAT). Please see the attached MAT document with the proposed changes highlighted; the rationales are given below. This would be implemented for prerequisites starting September, 2017. Changes Rationales 1. In Level C1, MATQ 1099 (B-) changed to (B) To increase the success rate for students using

MATQ 1099 as a prerequisite for MATH 1112. 2. MATQ 1099 (C) moved from Level E1 to D1 MATQ 1099 is a harder level course than

MATQ 1094, so should at least be on the same row as MATQ 1094.

3. In Level F1, Foundations and Pre-Calculus (B+) changed to (B)

High schools do not assign a grade of B+ for Foundations and Pre-Calculus 10.

4. MATQ 1089 (C) moved from Level G1 to F1

MATQ 1089 is intended as a prerequisite for MATQ 1094 and MATQ 1099, so it belongs on Level F1.

5. In Level G1, Apprenticeship and Workplace 11 (C+) changed to (B)

To increase success in courses on Level G1.

6. In Level G1, Essentials of Mathematics 11 (C+) changed to (B)

To increase success in courses on Level G1.

7. For the MPT, “11/15 on Part D of Test” corrected to be “11/20 on Part D of Test”

Part D of the test actually has 20 questions.

8. Under the MPT footnotes (*), removed the requirements for course work in addition to the MPT score.

The course requirements have been problematic for correctly placing students who have taken high school math outside of BC. We anticipate replacing the MPT with a more thorough test in the near future.

Mathematics Alternatives Table Each row lists alternative ways to meet a mathematics requirement for admission or course prerequisite (the minimum acceptable grade for each course is indicated in brackets). For example, the requirement 'Level C1 as defined in the Math Alternatives Table' is fulfilled by any of the courses or tests listed on Level C1. In addition, fulfilling a particular Requirement Level also automatically fulfills all of the Requirement Levels lower in the table. For example, the requirement 'Level E1 as defined in the Math Alternatives Table' is fulfilled by any of the courses or tests listed on Levels A1, B1, C1 or D1, as well as E1.

Agenda Item: Bachelor of Science Degrees – Course Content Overlap

Action Requested:



N/A




Bachelor of Science degrees currently contain language from the Bachelor of Science Framework regarding course content overlap and how these courses may be counted towards graduation. This language is ambiguous and dated, so the Faculty of Science and Horticulture has revised course outlines to contain credit exclusions in its place. The credit excluded courses are also now in line with the current course content.

Consultations: Stephen Yezerinac, Associate Registrar, Senate and Curriculum

Attachments: List of Programs that require removal of the course overlap language

Submitted by: Elizabeth Worobec, Dean, Faculty of Science and Horticulture



1. Remove reference to courses with considerable overlap from the Academic Calendar.

2. Course outlines have been revised to include appropriate credit exclusions.

Agenda Item: Review of SSCC Membership Composition

Action Requested:



THAT the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum take from the table the following motion that was moved by Greg Harris on September 9, 2015:

THAT the SSCC membership be revised to change the roles of the faculty members from the Library and Co-operative Education from voting to non-voting.




The Faculty of Educational Support and Development was established by the KPU Board of Governors on June 3, 2015. In the Fall of 2015, the Vice Chair of Senate led a discussion with the Senate standing committees to review each of the committee’s terms of reference so that the Faculty of Educational Support and Development has representation on the Senate committees. With the exception of the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum (SSCC) and the Senate Standing Committee on the Library, this work was completed for all the Senate standing committees in 2015-2016. SSCC discussed updates to its membership composition on September 9, 2015 and passed the following two resolutions:

• THAT the SSCC membership be revised to add the University Registrar or Designate as a non-voting member.

• THAT the SSCC membership be revised to remove the faculty member from Counselling from the committee.

The following motion was tabled: • THAT the SSCC membership be revised to change the roles of the faculty

members from the Library and Co-operative Education from voting to non-voting.

This issue was considered again at the October 7, 2015 SSCC meeting, and after discussion, the committee decided to postpone its review of committee membership composition until the Faculty of Educational Support and Development has established its Bylaws and has a means of nominating faculty members to serve on Senate standing committees. As SSCC had tabled its discussion of membership composition, the Vice Chair of Senate held off on bringing forward the two resolutions passed at the September 9, 2015 meeting to the Senate Governance Committee for recommendation to Senate.

Consultations: • Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum (September 9 and October 7,

2015; March 1, 2017) • Senate Governance Committee (February 6, 2017) • Provost and Vice President, Academic (March 27, 2017) – regarding the

addition of the Vice Provost, Teaching and Learning, to SSCC • Vice Provost, Teaching and Learning (September 2016 and March 2017)

Attachments: Current Terms of Reference for the Senate Standing Committee on Curriculum

Submitted by: Jennifer Au, Vice Chair, Senate



1. The Bylaws for the Faculty of Educational Support and Development were approved by Senate on February 27, 2017.

2. At the February 6, 2017 meeting of the Senate Governance Committee (SGC), the Vice Chair of Senate consulted with the SGC regarding reopening prior discussions with SSCC around its membership composition. The SGC agreed that the membership composition of SSCC should be raised for discussion at the SSCC March meeting and the discussion continued at future meetings until such time as the SSCC decides to report back to the SGC.

3. The membership composition of SSCC was raised for discussion at the March 1, 2017 meeting. The committee discussed voting rights, selection of representatives, and type of representation.

4. The Provost would like for SSCC to consider adding the Vice Provost, Teaching and Learning, to the committee in a voting role. As a teaching-intensive University, KPU would benefit from having the Vice Provost, Teaching and Learning, serve on SSCC so that her contributions can help to enrich the committee’s discussions at both the program and course levels.
