objectives of the major/minor/concentrations)?
(Be aware that approval of the curriculum is dependent upon
these courses successfully passing through the Course Challenge list. If there
are no new courses enter “None”)
None
Explain, when appropriate,
how this new/revised curriculum supports the 10 goals of undergraduate
education: http://www.ugs.udel.edu/gened/
The proposed new concentration within the major supports the
10 goals of undergraduate education. In
particular, the required coursework will help student “attain effective skills
in oral and written communication, quantitative reasoning, and the use of
information technology” (Goal #1). As
many of the required courses include both individual and group assignments,
students will thus “Be able to work and learn both independently and
collaboratively” (Goal #3). Finally,
through placements and student teaching, students will “Develop the ability to
integrate academic knowledge with experiences that extend the boundaries of the
classroom” (Goal #7).
Identify other units affected
by the proposed changes:
(Attach permission from the affected units. If no other unit is affected, enter “None”)
The new concentration will require courses in UAPP,
The remaining required courses outside of HDFS are currently
also required for students in existing HDFS concentrations and majors, with
existing cooperative agreements.
Describe the rationale for
the proposed program change(s):
(Explain your reasons for creating, revising, or deleting the
curriculum or program.)
There is a nationwide
shortage of Family and Consumer Sciences teachers. The Department of Human Development and
Family Studies is uniquely qualified to offer a concentration within the Human
Services major that will train future teachers in this area, with an emphasis
on child and family development. Family
and Consumer Sciences teachers focus on preparing individuals for the challenges
of living and working in a diverse global society while strengthening the
well-being of individuals and families across the life span. To that end,
courses in Family and Consumer Sciences continue to be offered widely in high
school programs, and require preparation in the areas of early childhood
education, human services, apparel, and food service. Students in high schools take
this coursework to strengthen their high school curriculum, develop some job
skills, and prepare for post-secondary education. The proposed concentration will allow
graduating students to be certified in
The
majors in this concentration will be certified to teach in middle schools and
high schools in

(Show the new or revised curriculum as it should appear in the

Subject: New concentration
Laura,
We are working on proposing a new concentration
in the Human Services major to prepare students to teach Family and Consumer
Sciences. We had a program in FCS education and now there is renewed interest
in this field because most of the teachers are ready to retire. Would it be
possible to have an EDUC 400 section for 10 credits for FCS student teachers
that I would administer similar to the ECE student teaching sections? Thanks.

actually, we may have some room for an
additional course of two, if you
have any suggestions. I'm told they
would benefit from a "sewing" class,
but I'm so far afield from knowing
what class that would fit into,
and/or what the contemporary version
of that is...If you get a chance,
you're thoughts are most welcome.

We are looking at adding a
Restaurant Management minor which will also
put additional demand on those
courses, but if you are talking less than
5 per year we should have no
problem. You should note that students in
this class are required to purchase
chef attire and a knife kit. I am
copying the faculty involved in these
courses so they can come to me if
they have any concerns. If you do
not hear from me otherwise, you can
assume that HRIM is supportive.
