1 Curriculum Committee Report to the Faculty Senate December 6, 2017 The Curriculum Committee approved the following curriculum requests and course proposals and asks the Faculty Senate to accept the committee’s recommendations. Courses: New Courses ICS 110P – Introduction to Programming (3) NEW Proposal Rationale: A new introductory programming course which provides an alternative to ICS 110M. It uses the Python programming language. In ICS 110M students use App Inventor, a building block style language. In ICS 110P students use Python, a text-based language. Python should better prepare students to study Java, C and C++ which are all text-based languages they will encounter in future coursework. It also provides better background for scripting they will use in networking, operating systems and security classes. Prerequisite(s) None Learning Outcomes: Create a program using variables, conditional statements, looping, and event handlers. Use critical thinking and problem solving in creating programs. Create programs using the program life cycle. Vote: Yes No Abstain No Mark 16 0 0 0 Modifications BIOC 142 – Elements of Biochemistry (3) Modification Rational For Change: The course number is being changed to BIOC 142 to better represent that it is the second semester of our biochemistry sequence coming after BIOC 141. The number will be implemented at all UHCC campuses teaching the course as agreed upon by the multi-campus committee led by Leeward CC Dean of Arts and Science Jim Goodman. Honolulu CC has already implemented the change in a previous year.
