  • SCC Suggested Standards for Writing Curriculum The Course Outline of Record (COR) is a legal public document and is a reflection of our institution. CORs are a basis for articulation agreements and require State approval. Please make sure that your outline is accurate, grammatically correct, and comprehensible. Consistency between the Catalog Entry, Course Purpose, SLOs, Course Content and Course Objectives is especially important.

    Catalog Entry: Provides a clear and concise overview of the course. When developing or revising a catalog entry, keep the following points in mind:

    A well-developed overview of topics Includes identification of target audience (for major, degree, certificate, transfer, general interest) Includes additional logistical or fiscal burdens (field trips, material fees.) Can use phrases instead of complete sentences Avoid jargon and undefined abbreviations The units, class hours, prerequisites, co-requisites, and recommended preparation will automatically

    be listed before this paragraph The transferability will be automatically listed at the end

    EXAMPLES:

    Biology 139 Health Microbiology Unit(s): 4.0 Class Hours: 48 Lecture total, 64 Laboratory total. Recommended Preparation: Biology 109 or 149.

    Presents practical and theoretical aspects of medical microbiology to meet the needs of those in allied health professions. Provides basic knowledge of the microbial world by covering diversity, structure, metabolic and genetic characteristics, cultivation and control. Emphasis is placed on human-microbe interactions especially infectious diseases. Laboratory deals with identification, growth, and control of microorganisms. Field trips may be required. CSU/UC

    Human Development 116B Programming for Infants and Toddlers (DS4) Unit(s): 3.0 Class Hours: 48 Lecture total. Prerequisite: Human Development 107. Recommended Preparation: Human Development 116A.

    Focuses on the implementation of quality, developmentally appropriate, infant/toddler programs, including curriculum, environment, planning and interactions among staff, children and parents. Cultural sensitivity to the diversity of staff and families within such programs will be addressed. Field Trips may be required. This class partially fulfills the requirements for state licensing. With Human Development 116A, this course fulfills Infant/Toddler Specialization for Child Development Center Permit. Students must show proof of negative TB test results. CSU

  • Course Purpose: While the Course Description provides general information regarding the topics and content addressed in the course, the Course Purpose goes beyond that to describe how this course fits in to the students educational experience in the major. Includes the role in fulfilling a degree, certificate, transfer, or other need. Explains how this course relates to, or differs from, similar courses. Why should/do students take this course? What essential knowledge or skills should they gain from this experience? What knowledge or skills from this course will students need to have mastered to perform well in future

    classes or jobs? Why is this course important for students to take?

    EXAMPLES:

    1. This course reflects a new requirement in hazardous materials technology which is now required for certification in fire science. 2. This course in Jazz and Blues music grew out of increasing student demand for more on this subject than was currently being covered in our Popular American Music course. This new course will be part of the restricted elective list for those majoring in music. 3. This course is designed to meet the AA degree rationality requirement and CSU-GE and IGETC requirements in quantitative reasoning. This Liberal Arts Mathematics course provides a way for the general transfer student to meet these requirements without taking those courses designed to meet major preparation requirements in science and engineering or in geological, business or social sciences.

  • SCC Suggested Standards for Writing Curriculum The Course Outline of Record (COR) is a legal public document and is a reflection of our institution. CORs are a basis for articulation agreements and require State approval. Please make sure that your outline is accurate, grammatically correct, and comprehensible. Consistency between the Catalog Entry, Course Purpose, SLOs, Course Content and Course Objectives is especially important.

    Catalog Entry: Provides a clear and concise overview of the course. When developing or revising a catalog entry, keep the following points in mind:

    A well-developed overview of topics Includes identification of target audience (for major, degree, certificate, transfer, general

    interest) Includes additional logistical or fiscal burdens (field trips, material fees.) Can use phrases instead of complete sentences Avoid jargon and undefined abbreviations The units, class hours, prerequisites, co-requisites, and recommended preparation will

    automatically be listed before this paragraph The transferability will be automatically listed at the end

    EXAMPLES:

    Biology 139 Health Microbiology Unit(s): 4.0 Class Hours: 48 Lecture total, 64 Laboratory total. Recommended Preparation: Biology 109 or 149.

    Presents practical and theoretical aspects of medical microbiology to meet the needs of those in allied health professions. Provides basic knowledge of the microbial world by covering diversity, structure, metabolic and genetic characteristics, cultivation and control. Emphasis is placed on human-microbe interactions especially infectious diseases. Laboratory deals with identification, growth, and control of microorganisms. Field trips may be required. CSU/UC

    Human Development 116B Programming for Infants and Toddlers (DS4) Unit(s): 3.0 Class Hours: 48 Lecture total. Prerequisite: Human Development 107. Recommended Preparation: Human Development 116A.

    Focuses on the implementation of quality, developmentally appropriate, infant/toddler programs, including curriculum, environment, planning and interactions among staff, children and parents. Cultural sensitivity to the diversity of staff and families within such programs will be addressed. Field Trips may be required. This class partially fulfills the requirements for state licensing. With Human Development 116A, this course fulfills Infant/Toddler Specialization for Child Development Center Permit. Students must show proof of negative TB test results. CSU

  • Course Purpose: While the Course Description provides general information regarding the topics and content addressed in the course, the Course Purpose goes beyond that to describe how this course fits in to the students educational experience in the major. Includes the role in fulfilling a degree, certificate, transfer, or other need. Explains how this course relates to, or differs from, similar courses. Why should/do students take this course? What essential knowledge or skills should they gain from this experience? What knowledge or skills from this course will students need to have mastered to perform well in

    future classes or jobs? Why is this course important for students to take?

    EXAMPLES:

    1. This course reflects a new requirement in hazardous materials technology which is now required for certification in fire science. 2. This course in Jazz and Blues music grew out of increasing student demand for more on this subject than was currently being covered in our Popular American Music course. This new course will be part of the restricted elective list for those majoring in music. 3. This course is designed to meet the AA degree rationality requirement and CSU-GE and IGETC requirements in quantitative reasoning. This Liberal Arts Mathematics course provides a way for the general transfer student to meet these requirements without taking those courses designed to meet major preparation requirements in science and engineering or in geological, business or social sciences.
