C. Description of Revisions
1. Provide both the current and the revised program requirements.
Place these in two columns, side by side with categories aligned, for easy comparison and a clear identification of each change.
2. For each required and elective course being added to the program, provide the course number, name, catalog description,
and a brief statement explaining why the course should be included in the program.
C1) EDRD 450/550 This course examines the use of assessment data to plan differentiated reading instruction for a
range of learners with diverse cognitive, linguistic, and cultural backgrounds. Emphasis is placed upon
differentiation of instruction within classrooms and collaboration with other professionals for the design of databased interventions for struggling readers, advanced readers and English language learners. Graduate project
required if taken at graduate level. Offered as needed. (3 cr.) Prerequisites: EDUC 328 & EDUC 329
The course has been added to the program to provide the increased depth of preparation required to address
several recent changes in reading-related standards for the preparation of Early Childhood and K-6 Elementary
Teachers. The course is being offered at a 400 / 500 level because it addresses licensing standards from the MN
K-6 Elementary Teaching License (undergraduate level) and also lays the foundation for several licensing
standards for the MN Teacher of Reading license (graduate level).
D. Impact of this Program Revision
1. Clearly state the impact of this revised program on other departments, programs, minors, or majors.
2. It is the responsibility of the department submitting a program proposal to send written notification to the department(s) or
program(s) affected. Attach letter(s) of understanding from any impacted department(s).
D1) The course does not duplicate content of other courses; rather the course is being created in order to address recent changes in readingrelated licensing requirements which are beyond the scope of pre-requisite courses. The course is part of a larger overall redesign of the
program for the Early Childhood and Elementary Education majors. Music, Art, Physical Education, and Health will be impacted to some
extent. Each department has been in extended discussion with the Education Department over the program redesign, and agreements
have been reached with each department on shifting of and/or reduction of required credit hours to bring them into closer alignment with the
number of teaching standards addressed.
E. Attach to this proposal a completed
1. Financial and Staffing Data Sheet
2. New and Revised Course and Program Approval Form for this course
You may also need to fill out the MNSCU Program Redesign Application and submit this directly to the VPAA.
This program revision will be implemented in the fall semester following completion of the approval process.

WINONA STATE UNIVERSITY
FINANCIAL AND STAFFING DATA SHEET
Course or Program_EDRD 450/550 Differentiated Reading Instruction
Include a Financial and Staffing Data Sheet with any proposal for a new course, new program, or revised program.
Please answer the following questions completely. Provide supporting data.
1.
Would this course or program be taught with existing staff or with new or additional staff? If this course would be taught by adjunct
faculty, include a rationale.
This course would be taught with existing staff. There have been four sections of that course offered each semester, two of them taught
by tenure track faculty. Thus, existing staff is available to be reassigned for teaching of this course in place of the discontinued course.
2.
What impact would approval of this course/program have on current course offerings? Please discuss number of sections of current
offerings, dropping of courses, etc.
This course would have no impact on current course offerings for education majors. EDUC 120, a university studies course, has recently
been discontinued from university studies/general education program. There have been four sections of that course offered each
semester, two of them taught by tenure track faculty. Faculty would be reassigned.
3.
What effect would approval of this course/program have on the department supplies? Include data to support expenditures for
staffing, equipment, supplies, instructional resources, etc.
This course would have minimal financial impact on department supplies. The course does not involve any unusual support staffing or
new purchasing of equipment. Minimal costs for printing and clerical support would be more than offset by the discontinued university
studies/general education program course (EDUC 120).
