Recommendations:

1. Department of Health, Physical Education & Recreation: a. Create a new course: RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation (3 cr.)

Proposed Bulletin Description: RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation 3 cr. (2-0-2) Prerequisites: Senior standing and RE 381

Planning, design and production of multimedia interpretive programs for use on portable media devices (e.g., iPods, smart phones, and tablet PC’s). Course includes the exploration of the use of locative media and object-based media in parks, museums and visitor centers.

Abbreviation: New Media in Interp

Rationale: RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation is a logical enhancement of RE 382 (Self-guided Media). Adding 482 would permit students to focus more accurately on written self-guided interpretation (i.e., brochures, booklets, newsletters, signs and exhibits) in RE 382 while RE 482 would focus on new media or purely digital publication in interpretation (i.e. audio and video podcasts, digital magazines and movies). Currently, students are overloaded trying to learn both print design and digital media design in RE 382. A distinct course for digital, or new media, is needed to provide students with proficiency in all media aspects of interpretation.

b. Revise the bulletin description for RE 382 Interpretation II: Self- Guided Media

Rationale: The creation of RE 482 allows RE 382 to focus on interpretive series including publications, exhibits, signs, self-guided tours and trails. See Appendix A for complete bulletin changes related to this proposal.

c. Revise the Outdoor Recreation Leadership and Management major by: i. Removing the following courses from the major: 1. RE 294 Field Work (A, B, C and/or D) (3 cr.)

Rationale: Field experiences are still important in the curriculum but will be accommodated through portfolio requirements already in place in the Professional Development seminars (RE 191, RE 291 and RE 391) and in the Professional Assessment Seminar (RE 491) in order to make room for the new RE 482 course.

2. MKT 230 Introduction to Marketing (4 cr.)

Rationale: The majority of agencies in the profession are service agencies. MKT 430 provides marketing strategies that are specifically targeted for the service industry. It is a better fit than MKT 230.

ii. Adding the following courses to the major: 1. RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation (3 cr.)

Rationale: RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation is a logical enhancement of RE 382 (Self-guided Media). Adding 482 would permit the department to focus more accurately on written self-guided interpretation (i.e., brochures, booklets, newsletters, signs and exhibits) in RE 382 while RE 482 would focus on new media or purely digital publication in interpretation (i.e. audio and video podcasts, digital magazines and movies). A distinct course for digital, or new media, is needed to provide students with proficiency in all media aspects of interpretation.

2. MKT 430 Services Marketing (4 cr.)

Rationale: The majority of agencies in our profession are service agencies. MKT 430 provides marketing strategies that are specifically targeted for the service industry.

d. Revise the Interpretation and Outdoor Education minor by: i. Removing the following courses from the minor: 1. RE 155 Outdoor Living Skills (2 cr.) 2. RE 371 Protected Area management (3 cr.) Rationale: In order to accommodate the new RE 482 class these courses were seen as the most appropriate ones to delete given the general content and expectations of the minor. The other remaining courses have a more direct correlation with the minor than do RE 155 and RE 371.

ii. Adding the following course to the minor: 1. RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation (3 cr.)

Rationale: RE 482 New and Portable Media in Interpretation is a logical enhancement of RE 382 (Self-guided Media). Adding 482 would permit the department to focus more accurately on written self-guided interpretation (i.e., brochures, booklets, newsletters, signs and exhibits) in RE 382 while RE 482 would focus on new media or purely digital publication in interpretation (i.e. audio and video podcasts, digital magazines and movies). A distinct course for digital, or new media, is needed to provide students with proficiency in all media aspects of interpretation.

Effect on other Departments: The College of Business was contacted and supports the change from MKT 230 to MKT 430.

Staffing: No additional faculty will be needed to teach these courses.

Costs: There will be an increased expense for the RE 482 course as Adobe Photoshop will be required. Additional licenses will have to be purchased.

Implementation Date: Fall 2010

2. Clinical Sciences Department/ Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences: a. Create a new course: SL 370 Observation in Speech, Language, and Hearing Science (2 cr.)

Proposed Bulletin Description: SL 370 Observation in Speech, Language and Hearing Sciences 2 cr. Offered: Fall, Summer Prerequisite: SL 150, SL160, SL 200, SL355; SL356 may be taken concurrently, junior standing or instructor's permission.

Students complete 25 hours of supervised clinical observation as required by the American Speech-Language-and-Hearing Association (ASHA).

Rationale: A separate course that focused on clinical observation was part of the curriculum prior to 2006 (CD 370). Based on the recommendations of an external evaluator which led to reorganization within the Department, the Observation course was

CUP report to the Senate, February 2, 2010 Page4 of 22 CUP: February 2, 2010 eliminated and the content incorporated into two other courses (SL357: Fluency Disorders and SL400: Phonological Disorders). Clinical observation is a pre-professional requirement of the American Speech-Language-and-Hearing Association (ASHA) Document: Knowledge and Skills Acquisition (KASA) for Certification in Speech- Language Pathology. The faculty in SLHS has determined that a) there is sufficient content within SL357 and SL400 to offer these courses without the observation component and b) many students have been unable to complete the observation requirement within these courses which has resulted in Incompletes. For this reason, SLHS wishes to re-institute a separate clinical observation course. See Appendix B for all bulletin changes related to this proposal.

b. Add the following courses to the Speech, Language, and Hearing Sciences major: i. SL 370 Observation in Speech, Language, and Hearing Science (2 cr.)

Rationale: Many students have been unable to complete the observation requirement within other courses which has resulted in incompletes. Reinstating the SL 370 course as a separate clinical observation course will help students complete program requirements in a timely manner.

ii. SL 465 Methods of Treatment (4 cr.)

Rationale: In 2006, the department decided to continue to offer an existing course, SL465 (Methods of Treatment), as an elective. This course includes one hour of lecture/discussion of treatment methods in speech, language, and hearing sciences and supervised clinical practicum with one or more clients in the Speech and Hearing Clinic at NMU. Initially we chose to offer SL465 as an elective because not all students in the major met the minimum qualifications. The course has since been revised so that all students in the major will have clinical experiences prior to completion of the baccalaureate degree. This capstone experience prepares students to be successful in their application to graduate programs in speech-language pathology or audiology or qualifies them for positions as speech/language pathology assistants which is a baccalaureate-level position.

c. Revise the prerequisites for the following courses: i. SL 200 Phonetics (4 cr.)

Rationale: Students must understand the basic anatomy and physiology of the speech mechanisms in order to acquire knowledge in how speech sounds are produced. These prerequisites will ensure students have the appropriate background for success.

ii. SL 220 Speech and Voice Science (4 cr.)

Rationale: SL220 requires a working knowledge of the International Phonetics Alphabet and the physiological basis for speech production. These are covered in SL200.

iii. SL 351 Introduction to Audiology (4 cr.)

Rationale: Adding the Physics course which is required for the major (PH101 or PH102) as a prerequisite encourages students within the major to complete a foundation in physics prior to undertaking specialized content within acoustics. This was the intent of ASHA when foundation courses in Physics, Biology, Behavioral Sciences, and Math were added to the Certification requirements within the profession.

iv. SL 355 Language Development (4 cr.)

Rationale: The content in SL200 (Phonetics) forms the basis for study of the development of phonology which is covered in this class.

v. SL 459 Cognitive Neuroscience (4 cr.)

Rationale: Students within the major have been enrolling in this class without basic foundation knowledge in Biology. This class was intended for students to take within their senior year after successfully completing SL359 but many students enroll during their junior year, taking this course out of the sequence in which it was originally intended.

vi. SL 464 Methods of Diagnosis (4 cr.)

Rationale: Students should have completed SL 355 before enrolling in this course in order to have the necessary background knowledge.

d. Revise the bulletin description for the following courses: i. SL 356 Language Disorders (4 cr.)

Rationale: Academic Service Learning is not included on a regular basis.

ii. SL 357 Fluency Disorders (4 cr.)

Rationale: Clinical observation is removed from SL357 and this content is placed within a new course, SL370.

e. Revise the bulletin description and prerequisites for the following courses: i. SL 359 Introduction to Neurogenics (4 cr.)

Rationale: SL150 is the introductory course within the major. Academic service learning is not included in this course on a regular basis.

ii. SL 400 Phonological Disorders (4 cr.)

Rationale: Clinical observation is removed from SL400 and this content is placed within a new course, SL370. Adding SL 160 will ensure students have necessary prerequisites for success in the course.

iii. SL 460 Cognition and Aging (4 cr.)

Rationale: Since SL460 covers content in areas within the Behavioral Sciences, the foundation course of PY100 is added a prerequisite. In addition, like SL459, this course was designed for students to take during their senior year, following the completion of the majority of courses within the major and students have taken this course out of the sequence in which it was originally intended. SL460 is a required course for the Gerontology minor. Gerontology minors are not expected to meet the prerequisites within the major but should have the basic content available in PY100 which is the introductory course in psychology at NMU.

iv. SL 465 Methods of Treatment (4 cr.)

Rationale: Updates requirements for the course and expectations of students.

Effect on other Departments: None

Costs: There are no additional costs associated with these changes. Physical facilities are currently adequate to meet the needs of course changes.

3. Departments of History and Modern Languages and Literatures a. Create a new course: HS/GR 311 (X) Central European Culture and Civilization (4 cr.)

Proposed Bulletin Description: HS/GR 311 (X): Central European Culture and Civilization [Cent Europe Cult/Civ] 4 cr. Prerequisites: EN 211 with a grade of "C" or better or HON 102 and HON 112 and sophomore standing. If part of a FLSA, instructor permission and completion of all OIA documents.

A multidisciplinary introduction to the culture and civilization of Central Europe, loosely defined as the lands of the Hapsburg Empire, and a comprehensive view of the historical, geographical, political and economic factors which have helped shape today’s Central Europe.*

*Note: When offered as 311X, a mandatory field experience abroad will be required.

Rationale: The course builds upon the experiences of the Vienna Study Abroad Program run since 2003 by Dr. Goodrich and Dr. Strauss, and in 2009 by Dr. Sherman, as an interdisciplinary experience that links language immersion with cultural and historical study in Vienna, Austria. It has thus been offered in a variety of forms as a FLSA but without a Bulletin course designation and description that precisely represents the emphasis on Central Europe, historically the German-speaking lands of the Hapsburg Empire. This course would create these through a cross listing that draws on the shared expertise in German Studies of the MLL and HS faculty. The rich experience of leading faculty-led study abroad by Drs. Goodrich (History) and Strauss and Sherman (Modern Languages and Literatures) has underscored both the student and faculty interest in these field experiences and the need to create a clear listing for them. The course would be listed as an elective toward the major and the minor in International studies (See Appendix C), as an elective toward the major or the minor in History, and as an elective toward the German minor and the Secondary Education German minor listed under “Course descriptions” in German and History.

Costs: There are no additional costs associated with this program

4. Department of Technology and Occupational Sciences: a. Create the following new courses: i. HM 220 Hospitality Management Corporate Communication (Disney) (3 cr.)
