2. SACS Compliance Report: Fayetteville State University FSU SACS Undergraduate Programs Committee

3. Responsibilities Each School or College will contribute information to the SACS Compliance Report. We will collect documentation providing evidence that: –FSU provides curricula that is aligned with its mission –FSU provides coherent collegiate-level instruction with justifiable program length

4. Requests of Each Program 1. Organization Map displaying order of positions within Colleges and Departments

5. Requests of Each School 2. Each School or College will be asked to provide a narrative describing how the curricula of FSU programs meet SACS standards. The Undergraduate Programs Compliance Report will ask specific questions supported by certain documents.

6. Compliance Report The written narrative will be given in the SACS Undergraduate Programs Compliance Report. Although some questions are directed to the institution, please answer all questions as they pertain to your programs/degrees.

7. Types of Documentation/Evidence Mission Statements University Catalogs Curriculum approval policies Approved curriculum Minutes of curriculum committees Program brochures Program review reports Academic policy manual Degree planning worksheets Copies of Consortium agreements State curriculum guidelines Student learning outcomes Comparative data with similar institutions

8. Suggestion for SACS Each program should devise four or five main goals for student learning. (What do you want graduates to know when they leave FSU?) Remember, they must be measurable, quantifiable goals consistent with the mission.

9. Requests of Each Program 3. Curriculum Matrix indicating which courses meet specific program goals

10. Requests of Each Program 4. Programs will receive a Course Level Objectives Worksheet. It contains 3 sections: –Course Descriptions (Catalog) –Course Objectives (Syllabi) –Artifacts (Assignments, tests, projects, etc. that are evidence of learning); TaskStream

11. Curriculum Alignment Make sure that Course Objectives within syllabi are consistent with the program goals. Many answers are found within the syllabi. A few may need to update the language. (Colleagues teaching the same classes should share/divide the task.) Plan to measure whether future graduates have accomplished these goals.

12. Workshops We hope to hold workshops providing useful information (curriculum alignment, course objectives, student learning outcomes, rubrics, artifacts, organizational map, etc.) Faculty members who are not able to attend may reference PowerPoint presentations and resource documents.
