: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'''. Other challenges include limited time frames for all faculty to meet at the same time to discuss curriculum issues.

:'''Faculty members (new hires and existing)''' can be directed to this site when teaching these courses for the first time to help '''gain the fundamental importance of the course curriculum''', to note the '''importance of <u>flow</u> between the streaming courses''', and to perhaps integrate this knowledge into their course delivery to provide students with '''forward linkages''' (i.e. a "heads-up") of why the current course content topics are essential to their success in the CNS/CTY programs.
