Overview
This WIKI is a collection of curriculum discussions held in May 1024 and January 6, 2015, as well as discussion from PAC committee meetings have been held several times during 2014. It is the intension of this WIKI to provide a collection point for ideas and collaboration between courses for the OPS Stream to assist in future curriculum development.
Challenge: Curriculum development can seem like a daunting task! On one hand, it is important for curriculum to grow and develop in order to take advantage of changing trends and help to better train our students for industry. On the other hand, great care must be taken to not make changes in course curriculum without considering the impact on other courses, and to make certain that content and learning skills are maintained in the learning outcomes for courses until a major curriculum review and possible curriculum revisions are warranted.
Possible Solution:
To help keep the topic on track, a Triage framework has will be used to prioritize suggested improvements into short-term, long-term, and wish-list categories. In this way, faculty can sort out easy to perform changes or "tweaks" to courses and foster discussion among courses in the OPS stream. It is hoped that this method allows for transparency, and allows for an encouraging and welcoming area for faculty to make suggestions / improvements to course curriculum.
