CourseLeaf

Reminder regarding users – although there may be multiple staff or faculty members with access to make edits in CourseLeaf, only the first person on the security table will be notified of changes at any particular level.

As new courses are added or changes are made to existing courses for Price College, please remember the following:

The standard statement for 3000 level courses is: //Prerequisite: Student must be approved for degree candidacy by Price College, or permission.//

The standard statement for 4000 level courses is: //Prerequisite: completion of 3000-level Business core// Any specific prerequisites should also be noted. There is no standard statement for lower-division courses. These are the tips provided by Bulletins.

· // Once a user has created a course request, that user may change or delete that course request until it has been approved. //

· // When submitting a new course request, the window will not close until all files (i.e., syllabus) are completed uploading. //

· // As you submit course changes or new course requests, please spell out the prerequisite in the course description box as well as the semester(s) offered at the end. //

// Example: // For the course MLLL 3463, Arab Culture and Society through Modern Fiction // 1. // Prerequisite: junior standing. This course introduces a broad range of themes and issues of modern Arabic culture and society, such as religion, family, gender, identity, emigration, colonialism, resistance, nationalism, freedom of expression, corruption, and war. (Sp)

// 2. //// The course title is **not** part of the description. Please do not begin the course description with the number and/or title of the course. The description should begin with either “Prerequisite” or if the course is lower-division and has no prerequisite, the beginning of the description //

· // Please do not include the designator/prefix/subject code as part of the course number. The course number is just that, four digits. The subject code list is the designator/prefix under which the course will be offered. //

· // The guidelines and policies regarding courses have not changed with CourseLeaf. A copy of the flowchart may be found at // // [| http://www.ou.edu/provost/pronew/content/09courses.pdf] //

· // Please remember that if a course is one that can be repeated, that information must be stated in the description. //

· // Please use the comment section at the bottom to indicate crosslisting // (two different department designators) // and slashlisting // (combined graduate/undergraduate class) // of courses. This field should **__not__** be used to list all of the elements of the course that are changing (number, prerequisite, description, etc.). That information should be quite obvious through the use of red //// strikethrough //// and //**// green bolded //**// text. It is redundant to list the information again. //

· // Editors/Input Users may make edits to any request at any time. The edits will show up as strikethrough if material is deleted and text that is added will be bolded in green. If you make a mistake and need to make a correction you may do so. This applies to any type of request – course addition, course change, or course deletion. //

· **// Reminder //**// – When putting in the information for a course request, don’t forget or ignore to cover the following: // // 1. //**// Schedule Type //**// (lecture, lecture with lab, lab, etc. ), // // 2. //**// Grade Mode //**// (letter-graded, S/U, etc.), // // 3. //**// Course Level //**// (undergraduate or graduate), and // // 4. //**// Restrictions //**// (prerequisites). I will be updating the course request checklist and will distribute that as soon as possible. //

· // Syllabi must be attached as pdf documents. It is best if you name the syllabus as the course designator and number (ex. CL C2113.pdf). //

// OU course inventory may be found at: [] - ALL faculty and staff should have access to this as a view only screen. //

// The screen used for approval is found //[|here] // only faculty and staff with edit and approval authority may use this screen. //
