Support Tools

Below are links to support tools you can use to help you plan for your Baccalaureate Core course review and to track information over time for future reviews.

Synthesis Post-Review Form Templates

If you received a letter from the Baccalaureate Core Committee that requires the submission of additional information for a course, you may find these templates helpful. It is recommended these templates be used to generate your responses BEFORE accessing the online form link that was emailed to you. Your responses can then be copies and pasted in the open-ended questions fields.

  • Those who received letters requesting that missing materials be submitted by April 1, please refer to this form to help you: Missing materials review form template.
  • Those who received letters requesting that "you submit additional information to provide us with more detail on how students in this course achieve the Baccalaureate Core Category Learning Outcomes" with a deadline of April 15, 2013, please refer to this form to help you: Additional information request template.

 

You can refer to the example responses provided in the table cell below to help guide you.

 2013-14 Baccalaureate Core Category Course Review

Course Form Template

This is a Word document that contains the same fields as the Category Course Review Webform. This document will familiarize you with the different fields in the webform. You can also write answers to the open-ended questions in the Word document and then copy and paste the text into the actual webform.

Baccalaureate Core Course Tracking Spreadsheet

(Support Tool)

This is an Excel spreadsheet that may be useful for tracking changes in your course over time (e.g. between terms or over years). The spreadsheet may be particularly useful if there are multiple sections of a course or if your course covers more than one Baccalaureate Core category.

 

Spreadsheet


NOTE: The tracking spreadsheet provided here is oriented towards the qustions from the Synthesis review and will be modified to reflect the updated review form. The sample responses and spreadsheet should still be helpful. The updated spreadsheet will be posted by the end of February 2013.

 

Baccalaureate Core Course Assessment and

Outcomes Tracking Table  (Support Tool)
