OVERVIEW of RECOMMENDATION
and RATIONALE
CORE CURRICULUM REVIEW COMMITTEE
The Office of Educational Affairs is recommending
a change to include the addition of COMM 2366 in
Tier 2 - Core Domain under Humanity, Creativity,
and the Aesthetic Experience category. This
recommendation is based on the cross-listing of
this course with DRAM 2366 in the ACGM. The
inclusion of this course will allow students an
option to select either of the two courses
and flexibility with their course offerings.
RESPONSE:
Add COMM 2366 to the DCCCD Core in Humanity,
Creativity, and the Aesthetic Experience Learning
Category, section CB050
COMMENTS:
The DCCCD Catalog notes that COMM 2366 and DRAM
2366 are cross-listed, as determined by the ACGM, and
“The student may register for either DRAM 2366 or COMM
2366...” Due to this statement, it is illogical to include one
of these courses for core credit and not the other. The
DCCCD courses have identical course descriptions and
match the course description in the ACGM, but differ in
titles, content, and purpose. In addition, COMM 2366 has
no reading pre-requisite and DRAM 2366 does. The CCRC
recommends that both discipline committees meet to
discuss the differences in the courses and determine if
there is a need for both course offerings. (The Office of
Educational Affairs prefers that course titles match those
listed in the ACGM). See Appendix A for documentation.

(RESPONSE/
RECOMMENDATION)
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
Add COMM 2366 to the DCCCD
Core in Humanity, Creativity, and
the Aesthetic Experience
Learning Category, section CB050,
starting in Fall 2013, provided
that the DRAM and COMM
discipline committees meet in Fall
2012 to develop equivalent
prerequisites and align student
learning outcomes. (Requires VP
Council charge to DRAM and
COMM discipline committees.)

Economics
The Economic Curriculum Committee would like to
recommend a change to the Economic courses as
a result of the deletion and removal of ECON
1303 from the Lower Division Academic Course
Guide Manual (LDACGM or ACGM) by the Texas
Higher Education Coordinating Board and Texas
Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS).
This change in our district will result in the addition
of a new course, ECON 1301 to Tier 1 - Core
Foundation under Wellness and the Human
Experience category in the core; and ECON 1303
will be removed from the core under the same
category. ECON 1303 will be expired in Colleague
and no longer available as part of the district
course offerings. In addition, the Economics
Curriculum Committee also recommends the
current Tier 1 - Core Foundation under the
Wellness and the Human Experience category be
amended for the interim period to include both
courses and read, "ECON 1303 or 1301". This will
allow both students and staff to transition into the
new course, ECON 1301 and new core while these
overlapping changes are being implemented in this
area.
RESPONSES:
1. Do not include ECON 1301 in the Wellness and
Human Experience Learning Category, section
CB090 in Tier 1.
2. Contact the ECON Discipline Committee and if
they agree, add ECON 1301 to the DCCCD Core in
the Self and Society Learning Category , section
CB080.
COMMENTS:
ECON 1303 is included in the Wellness and Human
Experience Learning Category in response to students’
request to study money and credit management and other
personal finance topics. BUSI 1307, Personal Finance, is
included in this Learning category for the same reason.
ECON 1301 is a survey of microeconomics and
macroeconomics. It does not address topics suitable for
the Wellness and Human Experience category. It does
include topics suitable for the Self and Society Learning
Category. It is reasonable to include ECON 1301 with the
other ECON courses offered in this category; 2301, 2302,
and 2311.
ECON 1303 expires in Fall 2013. Until that time, students
can enroll and receive core credit for successful completion
of the course. See Appendix B for documentation.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
1. Do not include ECON 1301 in
the Wellness and Human
Experience Learning Category,
section CB090 in Tier 1.
2. CCST recommends ECON
Discipline Committee (if they
agree) include ECON 1301 in the
Self and Society Learning
Category, section CB080, and
submit request in the 2012-2013
Academic Curriculum Process, to
be effective Fall 2013, provided
the deadlines are met.
2
Foreign
Languages
The Office of Educational Affairs is recommending a
change to remove selected Foreign Language
courses from the DCCCD Core Curriculum. The
rationale for this recommendation is that these
courses are not part of the district course offerings
at any DCCCD location and there are no future
plans by any college to offer these courses.
Therefore, we recommend these courses be
removed and deleted from the core to ensure we do
not encounter any compliance issues with SACSCOC
and the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board.
RESPONSE:
Continue the inclusion of all currently listed foreign
language courses in DCCCD Core.
COMMENTS:
The recommendation to remove some 1XXX and 2XXX
foreign languages courses from the DCCCD Core originated
from the Office of Educational Affairs. Members of the
Foreign Language discipline committee were unaware of
this request. Several colleges are planning to offer one or
more of these courses in the near future. Courses are also
offered as needed in response to community requests.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
No action is required because of
the potential changes
forthcoming in the 2014 Core.
Continue the inclusion of all
currently listed foreign language
courses in DCCCD Core.
The courses recommended for removal are as
follows:

Government
The Government Curriculum Committee would like to
recommend a change to be considered as part of
the DCCCD Core Curriculum.
GOVT Discipline Committee Recommendations
Based on the multifaceted discussions regarding the
content/outcomes of GOVT 2302 and the stated objectives of
the Tier 3 integrated learning experience, the discipline
committee submits the following recommendations for your
committee to discuss and take action upon:
1.The Core curriculum should have a higher level of rigidity to
ensure students have the knowledge, skills and abilities as they
move from Tier 1 to Tier 2.
AND
2. The designation of Tier 3 should be removed and the Core
domain be consolidated into Tier 2. Due to Texas state
requirements, GOVT 2302 must appear as a separate
requirement to fulfill 6 credit hours in GOVT. We also suggest
changing the title of the Core domain from “integrative learning”
to “global awareness.” This more accurately reflects the Student
Learning Outcomes (SLO’s) and the content of GOVT 2302 per
the ACGM. Alternatively, it could be listed with GOVT 2301 under
“Self and Society.”
OR
3. The Core domain of “Integrative Learning” could be
maintained, but with more than one course under that domain.
Using the existing structure, there is only one course in Tier 2
that does not have options and is also from another discipline.
That course is ENGL 1302, which is an ideal partnering for
promoting the outcomes of the Core domain as it is currently
worded.
a. This pairing may potentially require a district wide support of
Learning Communities, which poses a significant logistical and
financial challenge. However, it is a common practice to require
a learning community course at two- year colleges and is
considered a best practice in higher education pedagogy.
b. Another option would be for students to take the courses in
the same semester, upon the completion of Tier 1. Leaving
students with the opportunity to concurrently enroll in Tier 2
courses. This addresses the perception of a third year experience
and provides the opportunity for integrated learning to take
place and be assessed in more than one course.
RESPONSE:
1. The VP Council intends to address the GOVT
Discipline Committee recommendation 1.
Recommendation not addressed by the CCRC.
RESPONSE:
2. Do not move GOVT 2302 into Tier 2 and do not
remove the designation of Tier 3. ) See RESULTING
CORE – GOVT RECOMMENDATION (OPTION 1) that
illustrates the impact of the recommended change.
COMMENTS:
There is a demonstrable need for the concentration of core
completers in a single course to provide for an effective
district-wide assessment of core completers.
The domain (now called learning category) title is Critical
Issues in Local, National, and Global Contexts. This title
seems suitable for GOVT 2302. The suggested change in
the Tier 3 title from “Integrative Learning “ to “Global
Awareness” may not be suitable when the GOVT sequence
changes from GOVT 2301/2302 to GOVT 2305/2306.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
1. The VP Council intends to
address the GOVT Discipline
Committee recommendation 1.
Recommendation not addressed
by the CCRC or CCST.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
2. Do not move GOVT 2302 into
Tier 2 and do not remove the
designation of Tier 3.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
3. Do not move any course or
courses into Tier 3 to accompany
GOVT 2302.
RESPONSE:
3. Do not move any course or courses into Tier 3 to
accompany GOVT 2302. (See comments below related
to the Philosophy recommendation). See RESULTING
CORE – GOVT RECOMMENDATION (OPTION 2) that
illustrates the impact of the recommended change.
COMMENTS:
Several goals of ENGL 1302 are to develop critical thinking
skills, to promote writing that emphasizes argumentation
and persuasion and to write a formal research paper. The
CCRC believes that it is beneficial for students to complete
ENGL 1302 prior to enrolling in GOVT 2302.
The DCCCD Core will need to be refined to address new
THECB requirements. Any structural redesign could occur
at this time.
Note: There are two courses in Tier 2 that do not have
options, ENGL 1302 and GOVT 2301.
Note: Students can concurrently enroll in Tier 1 and Tier 2
courses and can also concurrently enroll in Tier 2 and the
Tier 3 GOVT 2302 course.
See Appendix C for documentation & additional rationale.

Mathematics
The Mathematics Curriculum Committee would like
to recommend a change to the calculus
course sequence, which will allow our colleges
to offer only the 4 credit hour series and/or
sequence of calculus courses and conform with
many local colleges and universities. These
mathematic courses are also included as part of
the articulated transfer curriculum for the Voluntary
Mechanical Engineering Transfer Compact
agreement that currently exist among several
higher education institutions within the State of
Texas.
This change in our district will result in
the deletion and/or replacement of two
Mathematic courses, MATH 2315 and MATH 2513
from Tier 1 - Core Foundation under the
Quantitative Reasoning category; and the addition
of two courses, MATH 2413 and MATH 2415 under
the same category. These two courses will be
expired in Colleague and no longer available as part
of the district course offerings.
RESPONSE:
Change the Calculus courses included in the DCCCD
Core in the Quantitative Reasoning Learning
Category, section CB020 from a 5-4-3 sequence,
MATH 2513, 2414, and 2315 to a 4-4-4 sequence,
MATH 2413, 2414, and 2415. Remove MATH 2513
and 2315 from the DCCCD Core and the DCCCD
Catalog.
COMMENT:
The three course calculus sequence is approved for
inclusion in the core. This recommendation from the
Mathematics Discipline Committee represents a
redistribution of credit hours in the three course sequence
but does not involve adding or deleting core course
content.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
Change the Calculus courses
included in the DCCCD Core in the
Quantitative Reasoning Learning
Category, section CB020, from a
5-4-3 sequence, MATH 2513,
2414, and 2315 to a 4-4-4
sequence, MATH 2413, 2414, and
2415. Remove MATH 2513 and
2315 from the DCCCD Core and
the DCCCD Catalog. Changes will
be effective in Fall 2012.
5
Music
The Music Curriculum Committee would like to
recommend a change to the Music courses as a
result of the deletion and removal of MUSI
1300 from the Lower Division Academic Course
Guide Manual (LDACGM or ACGM) by the Texas
Higher Education Coordinating Board and Texas
Common Course Numbering System (TCCNS).
This change in our district will result in the addition
of a new course, MUSI 1301 to Tier 1 - Core
Foundation under Wellness and the Human
Experience category in the core; and removal of
MUSI 1300 from the core under the same category.
MUSI 1300 has been expired in Colleague and is no
longer available as part of the district course
offerings. The new course offers the following
opportunities for students to explore who they are
and how they relate to the world on a social and
intellectual level as shown below:
1.
2.
RESPONSES:
1. Add MUSI 1301 to the DCCCD Core in the
Wellness and Human Experience Learning Category,
section CB090.
2. Remove MUSI 1300 from the DCCCD Core. (Since
the course has been removed from the ACGM, it is no
longer eligible for inclusion in the core). Even though this
course is expired the core code of 090 will be maintained
for this course.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
1. Add MUSI 1301 to the DCCCD
Core in the Wellness and Human
Experience Learning Category,
section CB090. Change will be
effective Fall 2012.
2. Remove MUSI 1300 from the
DCCCD Core. Change is effective
Spring 2012.
COMMENTS:
MUSI 1301 introduces students to one or more forms of
artistic expression as do other courses in this learning
category.
See Appendix D for documentation
Social - students interact with other
students in a class setting, including
working with teams.
Intellectual - students are taught
foundational material that
encourages the application
of new knowledge immediately and in
conjunction with other learning; this
course is also pertinent in the
preparation for continued music study.
6
Philosophy
The Philosophy Curriculum Committee would like to
recommend two Philosophy courses, PHIL 2307 and
PHIL 2318 for specific designations as potential Tier
3 courses to supplement the one course currently
available in Tier 3. Reclassification of these courses
as additional alternatives in Tier 3 will allow for the
highest levels of critical thinking and integrative
learning that allow students to demonstrate the
development of the writing, critical thinking,
quantitative reasoning, personal responsibility and
social responsibility competencies to be adopted by
the THECB. Consequently, they offer excellent
opportunity for assessment of student competency
in achieving general education and State mandated
competencies. Placement of these courses in Tier 3
should facilitate assessment of students who are
graduating or nearing graduation with
measurements embedded in these courses.
RESPONSE:
Do not move PHIL 2307 and 2318 from the DCCCD
Core Humanity, Creativity, and the Aesthetic
Experience Learning category, section CB040 to a
Tier 3.
COMMENTS:
To create a new learning category that contains PHIL 2307
and 2318 in Tier 3 results in adding three credit hours to
the DCCCD Core Curriculum if the other courses in the
Humanity, Creativity, and the Aesthetic Experience
Learning category, section CB040 are retained in Tier 2.
To avoid adding credit hours to the DCCCD Core, one of
two options could be exercised: remove the Humanity,
Creativity, and the Aesthetic Experience Learning category,
section CB040 (and all other courses listed) from the core
OR move the entire learning category, with all of its
courses to Tier 3. The first option to remove the CB040
portion of this learning category from the core is obviously
unacceptable (literature, 2XXX level foreign language, etc.)
The other option to move the CB040 portion of the
learning category to Tier 3 is acceptable, but students
completing the core will be dispersed in a large number of
Tier 3 courses. This makes the THECB mandated districtwide assessment of core completers very challenging. See
RESULTING CORE – PHILOSOPHY RECOOMENDATION S
(OPTIONS 3, 4, and 5) to illustrate the impact of the
recommended changes.
RECOMMENDATION TO VP COUNCIL:
Do not move PHIL 2307 and 2318
from the DCCCD Core Humanity,
Creativity, and the Aesthetic
Experience Learning category,
section CB040 to Tier 3.

Coordinating Board Academic Approval Number 2313015112
Elaborated Rationale related to GOVT 2302 and Tier 3
1. Two GOVT courses are required by the Texas Higher Education Coordinating Board, THECB, for inclusion in the
state mandated core curriculum. The DCCCD Core Curriculum lists one course, GOVT 2301 in Tier 2 and the
other course, GOVT 2302 in Tier 3. Each course is a “standalone” course, that is, there are no other options.
(The GOVT 2301 and 2302 sequence will be replaced with GOVT 2305 and 2306 in the near future).
2. The THECB states that “a core curriculum should contain courses that provide multiple perspectives about the
individual and the world in which he or she lives; that stimulate a capacity to discuss and reflect upon individual,
political, and social aspects of life so students understand ways in which to exercise responsible citizenship; and
that enable students to integrate knowledge and understand the interrelationships of the disciplines.” The
selection of GOVT 2302 in Tier 3 as an Integrative Learning course addresses multiple aspects of this stated
goal. Topics listed in the Academic Course Guide Manual, ACGM, appropriate for GOVT 2302 include civil rights
and liberties, domestic policies, foreign relations and national defense.
3. It has been suggested that the cluster of courses, labeled CB040 in the Learning Category “Humanity, Creativity
and the Human Experience,” replace GOVT 2302 (GOVT 2302 would be moved to Tier 2) or move to Tier 3 with
GOVT 2302. This cluster contains some courses that are inappropriate for an integrative experience, including
most of the Foreign Language courses. Inappropriate courses would have to be removed from the Core, or
offered as Institutional Options.
4. Selecting a single course to add to Tier 3 along with GOVT 2302, such as a literature course, would add three
hours to the core. Forthcoming THECB requirements will limit the core to 42 hours. This option would create a
45 hour DCCCD core, which will not be allowed.
5. Fostering integrative learning requires some course re-design and professional development. It will be easier at
the onset to develop, encourage and support culminating integrative learning experiences in a single
course, rather than a broad list of courses and a larger pool of faculty.
6. The THECB requires that the DCCCD assess the Core Curriculum, not as individual colleges, but as a district. It
will be easier to “capture” and assess core completers if they are enrolled in a single required Tier 3 course,
than if they are enrolled in one of 20 – 25 different courses. Developing, administering, and scoring
multiple instruments to assess core objectives in a broad array of courses are time
consuming and labor intensive. Correlating data from multiple courses, colleges and instruments is also
challenging.
