Justification*
EXAMPLES: 

"This course improves the school's offerings in the growing areas of corporate, strategic, and advocacy communication and contributes to DEI offerings."

"This introductory level course addresses the need for understanding of the conceptualization, production, and power of media content and messages as media’s presence in our lives continues to expand. Students have expressed an interest in this introductory level material prior to taking upper level courses addressing media theory, media research, misinformation and disinformation, and media analysis."How is this course or course change beneficial to the school and college?
Please upload a copy of the proposed syllabus*

Cancelof
Please submit syllabus using CTE template

Please ensure the syllabus includes all information below:
- Learning Outcomes
- List of all required texts, readings, or other materials
- List and description of major assignments
- Description of the grading policy and how the final grade will be determined, including pass/fail grading if that option is selected
- Schedule of topics, activities, assignments, and readings appropriate for the number of credit hours for this course, with some indication of how the topics, activities, assignments, and readings will be distributed across the course.
- For 500 and 600-level courses ONLY - The course must include at least one graduate-only assignment whose non-completion would result in a minimum penalty of one full letter grade on the final course grade. Please include an explanation of how the graduate level additional assignment(s) reflect graduate-level skills—such as advanced analysis, deeper critical thinking, or rigorous research methods—beyond extending the quantity of undergraduate-level work.
Please note: it is the CIC norm to submit all courses for both online and face-to-face delivery. This allows us to teach the course online without having to go through the approval process again at a later date.
Please select all preferred delivery methods for this course*

Face-to-faceDistributed learning (online, two-way video, etc.)
Provisions for Course Content Interactions*
EXAMPLE: Student-to-Instructor (S2I) Interaction: Students listen/view lectures online via voice-over PowerPoint presentations and interact with the professor through discussion boards. The professor will post weekly prompts and post comments to students’ postings. The professor will post weekly announcements, provide individual feedback to students, and hold online office hours with Adobe Connect. Students-to-Student (S2S) Interaction: Students will engage in discussions through the discussion board and will interact through a team project. Student-to-Content (S2C) Interaction: Students will engage with course content by completing reading assignments; listening/reviewing PowerPoint presentations; writing discussion board postings; and completing homework assignments.
I certify that this course incorporates an amount of work equivalent to the face-to-face version of the course and appropriate for the number of credit hours awarded (2,100 total minutes of time on task per credit hour awarded).*

YesNo
Justification for Distributed Learning Delivery*
EXAMPLE: This course is of high interest to students as a general elective and is a pre-requisite for a higher-level departmental course. The department is currently unable to teach enough face-to-face sections to meet the course demand. Providing the course online will allow the department to offer larger sections, not be bound by physical classroom space, and allow more students to complete the course. The course materials incorporate basic accessibility features, provide for appropriate learning activities and allow for appropriate interaction.
