CUrricula/Concentration
This course is included in the following curriculum/concentration:
B.S. in Elementary Grades Education (4-year concentration, grades 1-5 teacher certification)
Justification
The course change proposed is to change EDCI 3625 from pass-fail to a graded course. Faculty in the
elementary education program feel the grade will better reflect student performance in this course and more
accurately indicate the variation in student ability. Program assessment data in teaching and learning,
curriculum and instructional strategies, and clinical and field experience reflect a range of student
performance that is not reflected using the pass/fail grade. A course grade would better align these data
points.

(225) 578-5919 (voice) or (225) 578-2600 (TOO)
FAX (225)578-4820
Student Teachers and interns who require accommodations should notify the Coordinator of
Field Experiences to present the official accommodation and to determine if the needs can be
accommodated during clinical practice.
Academic Honesty
Cheating will not be overlooked or tolerated. All cases of suspected academic dishonesty
will be reported according to the guidelines and regulations established by louisiana State
University. It is the student's responsibility to be knowledgeable of university regulations
regarding academic behavior such as independent work, appropriate citation of sources,
and plagiarism.
Special care should be taken when making reference to information gathered from Internet
sources. These sources, if used, must be cited appropriately. Falling to appropriately
acknowledge your sources constitutes academic dishonesty. Sources from the Internet are
generally not subject to an external review and the student must be cautious regarding
their accuracy.
Please note that while we strongly promote collaboration with your fellow student
teachers, unless specifically identified as a collaborative project, all work should be
completed independently. Unless specified as a collaborative project, the rules and
consequences regarding plagiarism will apply and the student is encouraged to obtain and
review the student handbook for guidelines.
Course Objectives
Students completing this course will be able to:
•
•
•
•
Effectively design and implement instruction
Foster a positive, well managed learning environment
Manage and monitor student behavior and learning
Use multiple assessments to plan, guide and modify instruction, the classroom
environment, and the assessment process
•
Display professional dispositions
R(',·lf-{)7./j
Attendance
Student teachers/interns must assume the same responsibility for absences expected of a
regularly employed teacher. Only absences due to illness or emergency are considered
excused absences. The Classroom Mentor Teacher, the University Supervisor, and the Office
of Field Experiences MUST be notified when student teachers/interns are absent.
Following is an excerpt from the lSU General Policy PS 22:
LSU GENERAL POLICY PS 22
Class attendance is the responsibility of the student. The student is expected to attend all
classes. A student who finds it necessary to miss class assumes responsibility for making up
examinations, obtaining lecture notes, and otherwise compensating for what may have
been missed. The course instructor will determine the validity of a student's reason(s) for
absences and will assist those students who have valid reasons. Valid reasons for absences
include:
I. Illness
2. Serious family emergency
3. Special curricular requirements such as judging trips or field trips
4. Court-imposed legal obligations such as subpoenas or jury duty
5. Military obligations
6. Serious weather conditions
7. Religious holidays
8. Participation in varsity athletic competitions or university musical events
Overview and Correlation to the Program
EDCI 3625 serves as the final course in the elementary and dual certification teacher
education programs. It provides the student teacher with the opportunity to integrate
theory, practice and reflection in diverse classroom settings. During this practicum, the
student participates in a support team consisting of a mentor teacher, university supervisor,
and peer cohort.
Field-based Experiences and Artifacts
For the elementary student teaching praeticum, candidates are placed in a single setting for
the entire semester. Information from previous field placements are reviewed and
considered when identifying the field placement for the student teaching semester. Student
teachers compile a comprehensive portfolio according to Portfolio Guidelines in the
handbook documenting their teaching experiences.
For the SPED student teacher practicum, candidates are placed half of the time in an
elementary setting taking on the roles of the elementary teacher and half of the time with a
SPED teacher performing the roles of the SPED teacher in various classroom situations.

Course Requirements
The Student Teaching Portfolio
The portfolio, central to the practieum, has many and varied purposes: to document growth
as a beginning teacher, to promote reflection, to enhance understanding of praeticum
experiences, to facilitate communication among all involved in the practicum; and, to serve
as a basis from which the practicum grade is derived. The port/olio should be current and
available to the University Supervisor/Clinical Faculty at all times.
Requirements for the student teaching portfolio can be found in the student teaching
handbook. University Supervisors/Clinical Faculty will provide guidelines as to which forms
should be used. Sections of the portfolio should be clearly delineated and labeled.
Reflective Practice
Student teachers practice self-reflection through a series of written activities including
video analysis, weekly lesson reflections, weekly general reflections, analysis of assessments
(pre-assessment, formative assessment, and post-assessment) in conjunction with the unit
plan developed and taught, and mid-semester and final self-evaluations.
Effective Professionalism
Student teachers are expected to demonstrate professional dispositions such as enthusiasm
for learning and teaching and the belief that all children can learn. Candidates continue to
grow and develop as professionals through large group topical seminars, professional
readings/discussion in weekly cohort meetings, professional development workshops and
training attended at the school sites. Attendance at and participation in each of the above Is
an indication of proressionalism and is assessed using the Candidate Evaluation Instrument.
The Professional Growth Plan serves as evidence of the candidate growing and developing
as a professional teacher.
Inquiring Pedagogy
Reflective practice is the foundation for all teacher preparation programs. Reflecting on
student diversity, student assessments, curriculum standards, as well as the social context
of school serves to guide candidates as they engage in the planning, instructing. and
assessment cycle of teaching. All teaching in this respect is inquiry based.
Attention to Diverse Student Populations
Candidates are provided with experience teaching and observing in both inner-city and
suburban schools with diverse student populations.
Instructional Support
Observations in various settings
large-group seminars
Bi-weekly reflective cohort seminars faCilitated by university supervisors
Individual mentoring by the classroom teacher and the university faculty member

Integration of Technology
Student teachers are expected to utilize technology in planning, teaching. and documenting
one's student teaching experience. The integration of tEchnology throughout their lessons
and dailv activities to enhance student learning is strongly encouraged during the student
teaching practicum.
Methods of Assessment
Written and verbal feedback from the mentor teacher and university supervisor
Written feedback of candidate's teaching performance
On-going review of portfolio
Assessment of the Integrated Unit Plan
Mid-semester and final evaluations by university supervisor and classroom mentor teacher

The changes in the prerequisites for this course reflects the changed character orlhe course under Or. Peter Clift who
is teaching a different conlent to whal preceded his arrival at LSU. The old prerequisites refleclS Ihe old course. nonc
of whose malerial is being used in either new course. GEOL 3200 was added as a prerequisite in order to facilitate
petroleum engineers 10 take part in this class. There is signilicanl interest wilhin Ihal group in tflking bolh these
classes and Dr Clift was concemed Ihal they were being unnecessarily excluded by the existing prerequisites. 11 is his
experience that petroleum engineers cope well with the class and thai selling up unnecessary prerequisites 10 exclude
lhem is counter-productivc.
The Commillee conditionally 3pprovcd Ihe proposal to change GEOL 4044 pending an explanalion on why the

This course is a prerequisite for PETE 3053 and PETE 4088. The course is an elective in the
geophysics program.
Primary justification is that PHYS 2102 is no longer being taught necessitating the change 10
PHYS 2113. The facuhy also reevaluated the prerequisite list for all PETE courses to ensure they
are appropriate which led the faculty 10 remove CE 2200 as a co-requisite course for PETE
3036. Since Ihe course is an elective in Ihe geophysics program, Ihc faculty added language to
allow seniors in the Depllnrncill ofGeoJogy and Geophysics 10 take the course.

From: Lawrence Rouse. Chair, Courses and Curricula Committee
At their October 15th, 201 J meeting, the Faculty Senate Courses and Curriculum Commiuee look the
following actions regarding the PETE proposals.
PETE 3050 and 3085
•
The Commiltec conditionally approved lhe proposals to add PETE 3050 and J085 pending revised
syllabi including lhe leaming objectives oflhe courses, oul of class cxpetl<llions (sample attached),
as well as delailed dC$Criptions ofthe design projecl.
ITIIi1ill
•
The Commince conditionally approved Ihe proposal to change rETE 3036 pending an cxplam'llion
of why CE 2200 is being deleted from the prerequisilc list.
All other proposals were approved; however. the commince nOled thallhe departmenl would hove 10 submit
paperwork to drop PETE 4050 in two years ns thejustilication for the course suggests.

Out of Class Work Requirement:
• Each 50·minute lecture will require a minimum of two hours of academic work such as
reading assignments, homework assignmenls, term paper, etc.
Grading:
• Midterm (30%); Final Exam (30%); Term Paper (25%); Homework Assignments (15%)
• TOLaI 100 points: A ~ 90; 90 > B ~ 80; 80 > C ~ 70; 70 > 0 ~ 60; 60 > F'
Justification: Chemical and biological sensors and signal transduction fall into the scope of
Electrical Engineering, yet the Division of Electrical and Computer Engineering do not offer a
relevant course on this topic. In addition. although the EeE curriculum revised its course
requirements for freshmen and sophomore level undergraduate students by adding Life Science
Electives as a core requiremenl from 2006·2007 academic year. no relevant courses are available in
the ECE curriculum. This course will prOVide studenls an opportunity to couple electrical
engineering with life sciences. This course has been taught three times and the enrollment has
increased significantly (9 in Spring 2007, 11 in Spring 2010, and 22 in Spring 2011), which shows
students' growing interest in chemical and biological sensor technologies. The course will provide
students an opporlUnity to learn and explore a real world application of engineering topics.

Dear Dr. Marzilli,
The Division of Electrical and Computer Engineering proposes a new course, EE4247
Chemical and Biological Sensors, which has gone through the university committee. The
committee has approved but requested a support letter from the Department of
Chemistry:
"The Committee approved the proposal to add EE 4247 but requested a letter of
support from the Chemistry department as the course has material similar to topics
taught in the Chemistry department."
I was wondering if you could review and comment on the attached course syllabus or
pass along this message to someone who is in charge of undergraduate curriculum.

Justification
Since Spring semester 2005, PETE 4050 - Reservoir Dynamics has been a
course that is located in the Spring semester of the Junior year in the curriculum. Prior
to Spring 2005 the course was PETE 4052 - Testing of Oil and Gas Wells and occupied
a Spring semester of the senior year slot in the curriculum. The course maintained a
4000-levet designation in order to also make it available for graduate credit as a well
testing course is typically available for graduate credit in other Petroleum Engineering
departments around the nation. The Faculty is adding a Production Engineering course
that fits best in the second semester of the Junior year but would leverage the content in
Reservoir Dynamics necessitating an additional shift of the course to the Fall semester.
This was judged by the Faculty to be a shift that warranted an additional change of
designation as a 3000-level course. The content will largely be unchanged as the
prerequisite courses for PETE 3050 are either unchanged (PETE 2032, MATH 2065) or
were changed to a corequisite (ME 3333) since the content in ME 3333 required by
PETE 3050 occurs late in the course. One additional prerequisite was added (PETE
2031) to ensure that students could not bypass the fundamental rock properties course
to take PETE 3050 out of sequence.

It is eICpected that the students have read the assisned chapters or pages prior to class for the
background necessary to property participate in the discussion and think critIcally about the concepts
addressed. As a general policy, for each hour you are in class, you (the student) should plan to spend at
least two hours preparing for the next class. Since this course is for three credit hours, you should e)lpect
to spend around six hours outside of class each week reading or writing assignments lor the class.

Attached you will find the documents requested from Dr. Thompson.
Some comments or notes:
Rather than providing a "detailed description of the design project" from PETE 3050 and PETE 3085 I have
removed them from the course. The design projects were left over from another course description used by
a current Faculty member and should not have been left in the description for either course. Whether a
Faculty member chooses to utilile a design project or not i~ left up to the dj~crelion of Ihe course inslructor
and we have nor selected an inslructor for Ihese courses. We also do not anticipate teaching these courses
any time within the next two years ~o any design project de~cribed now would likely be irrelevant that far
down the road. The rest of these ~yllabi include Ihe reque~ted information (objective~ and out of class
expectations)
PETE 3036 -I am not entirely sure what the issue was with the decision to drop CE 2200 as a prerequisite 10
PETE 3036, bUI , added a sentence to simply say it was dropped after review. If that is not sufficient then
please let me know.
We understand the issue wilh PETE 4050 - we are currently working on a plan for our graduate students
since the switch to PETE 3050 will impact graduate students and may necessitate transitloning to a course
similar to PETE 4050 for them. Again, we will drop the course in due time and we are only hesitating to
make sure we can accommodate our graduate student population as best we can.
Please let us know if you need anything else on Ihis matter.

Justification
For many years the Faculty in the Craft and Hawkins Department of Petroleum
Engineering has acknowledged a gap exists in the LSU Petroieum Engineering
curriculum that Petroleum Engineering departments elsewhere had which was a
dedicated production engineering course that was at least partially focused on
production facilities design. Such a course was a "Design Elective" in the LSU
curriculum and taught on a somewhat sporadic rotational basis. During the last several
ABET visitor meetings, no direct recommendations have been made 10 fill this gap,
However, questions from the ABET visitors indicate that the gap is noticeable, The
Faculty is proposing a new course, PETE 3085 - Well Performance and Production.
This new course will be required by all students under this catalog. This proposed
course will also fill a need for a design course a semester earlier than presently in the
curriculum which has been a recommendation by the Petroleum Engineering Advisory
Board on several occasions.

It is cxpectcd that thL' slUdents have rend Ihe assigned chapters or puges prior 10 class for the
background necessary 10 properly participate in the discussion and think critically aboul the
concepls addressed. As a general policy, for eAch hour you are in class, you (the student) should
plan to spend at least IwO hours preparing for the next class. Since this course is for three credit
hours, you should expect 10 spend around sb: hours outside of class each week. reading or writing
assignments for the class.

MsCastrillo,
Attached you will find the documents requested from Dr. Thompson.
Some comments or noles:
Rather than providing a "detailed description of the design project" from PETE 3050 and PETE 308S I have
removed them from the course. The design projects were left over from another course description used by
a current Faculty member and should not have been left in the description for either course. Whether a
Faculty member chooses to utilize a design project or not is left up to the discretion of the course instructor
and we have not selected an instructor for lhese courses. We also do not anticipate teaching these courses
any time within the next two years so any design project described now would liketv be irrelevant that far
down the road. The rest of these syllabi include the requested information (objectives and out of class
expectalions)
PETE 3036 -I am not entirely sure what the issue was with the decision to drop CE 2200 as a prerequisite to
PETE 3036, but 1added a sentence 10 simply say it was dropped after review. If that is not sufficient then
please let me know.
We understand the issue with PETE 4050 - we are currently working on a plan for our graduate students
since the switch to PETE 3050 will impact graduate students and may necessitate Hansitioning to a course
similar to PETE 4050 for them. Again, we will drop the course in due time and we are only hesitating to
make sure we can accommodate our graduate student population as best we can.
Please let us know if you need anything; else on this malter.

From: Lawrence Rouse, Chair, Courses and Curricula Committee
At their October 151h. 2013 meeting, the Faculty Scnale Courses and Curriculum Commince look the
following actions regarding the PETE proposals.
PETE J050 and J085
•
PETE
•
The Commillcc conditionally approved the proposals to add PETE 3050 and 3085 pending revised
syllabi including Ihc learning objectives of Ihe courses, Qui of class expectations (sample attached),
as well 3S detailed descriptions anhe design project.
]OJ~
The Commiltee conditionally approved the proposal to change PETE 3036 pending an explanalion
of why CE 2200 is being deleted from the prerequisite lisl.
All other proposals were approved: however. the comminee noted Ihallhc department would have to submit
paperwork 10 drop PETE 4050 in Iwo years as the juslification for the course suggests.
Please submit the requested documentation to Anna C(lstrillo in th.e Office oflhc Ulliversiry RegiSlrar al 112
