3) Panel Business
a) Are changes needed for any of the panel’s current descriptors and/or course approval criteria? The panel discussed the two subcommittee (speech and writing) findings for the online speech course requirements and for the writing descriptor/outcomes updates. Based on feedback received prior to and within the panel meeting, each subcommittee will need to reconvene to make further adjustments before bringing back to the full panel for final consideration. Both subcommittees agreed to a special meeting in January in the hopes of finalizing all recommendations via a full-panel vote at the spring ’22 meeting. Both subcommittees were encouraged to take suggested changes back to their discipline experts at their own institutions for their thoughts and recommendations as well. Any additional feedback collected from these institutional reviews will be shared within the January subcommittee meetings. Depending on how outcomes are developed for the writing sequence, the panel may decide to split the writing descriptions/outcomes between the research and non-research courses. Other updates to the criteria are not needed until after the new information is finalized on the descriptions, etc. The panel also briefly discussed the idea of creating a new descriptor code for fully-online speech courses (post-COVID era) much like the general education science courses that have an L-designation to indicate the course has a lab. IAI staff will discuss this with programmers to ensure this can be done and approximate timeline should the panel decide to move forward with this idea. This will be added as a continuing discussion item to the panel’s spring ’22 meeting agenda. b) Outstanding / ongoing topics from previous panel meeting(s)
c) Updates
d) Other discussion items from panel members: Claire Gordon announced that she would be retiring from LLCC next May so the spring ’22 panel meeting will be her last meeting. If the speech subcommittee is still in the process of revising their descriptor, a new subcommittee co-chair will need to be named since Claire has been leading the charge on that work.
e) Next meeting(s):
i) Spring '22 = Friday, April 1st, at 10:00 am at a venue TBD and via Zoom web conference
ii) Fall '22 = Friday, November 4th, at 10:00 am at a venue TBD and via Zoom web conference Panel Approval Ratio
