Education Council

Education Council (also known as EdCo) is an internal governance body of 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 as required by the . Education Council considers curriculum and educational policies relating to students, standards, planning and operations.

In carrying out the business of Education Council, members exercise their best individual judgment in accordance with the 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Mission, Vision, Values and Strategic Directions. All eligible members vote freely on all issues considered by Education Council regardless of their association with a particular portfolio/area of the institution.

Council meets on a monthly basis except during July and August. During the summer, and other breaks, the Operations Standing Committee deals with matters requiring action. The Operations Standing Committee is subject to the authority of Education Council and its work is reviewed and ratified by Council.

Other Education Council Standing Committees provide in-depth curriculum (the CPR committees), academic policy (ARP), and calendar review (CCC). These standing committees make recommendations to Education Council and Council relies on its standing committees to ensure appropriate program area expertise as well as the independent perspective provided by additional members from outside the program area. All standing committees report directly to Education Council.

In December 2005, the 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Education Council officially took over from an Interim Education Council in place during the transition from Okanagan University College (OUC) to 香港六合彩开奖结果查询.

香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Education Council has its roots in the Okanagan University College Education Council. The OUC Education Council met for the first time in February of 1995 following substantial changes to the College and Institute Act of British Columbia (鈥渢he Act 鈥). These changes to the Act included the establishment of a bicameral system of institutional governance in which the Board of Governors and Education Council were assigned roles and responsibilities.

OUC Education Council met monthly on a regular basis from February 1995 until April 2005. On March 17, 2004, the BC government announced the  2005 dissolution of OUC and the institution was placed under the control of a government-appointed Public Trustee.

The South Kelowna, Vernon, Penticton, and Salmon Arm campuses of OUC became the new 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 and the 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Interim Education Council was formed with faculty, staff and students elected to the former OUC Education Council and moving to 香港六合彩开奖结果查询. To ensure representation from all regions and representative groups, a small number of volunteers were also named to the Interim Education Council. These members, as well as administrators named by the 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 President, met from May to November of 2005.

Following elections, the formally-constituted 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Education Council began work on December 7, 2005. 

The bylaws under which Education Council operates are available.

While some members of Education Council are appointed, others are elected. Faculty (10 seats) and support staff (two seats) elections take place in the spring; student (four seats) elections take place in the fall. The election rules are available. Read the Election rules.

Forms

Effective October 2021, the PDF forms have been replaced by  (Kuali).

Your login credentials for Kuali are the same as your myOkanagan credentials. 
Please contact Education Council for assistance.

Cross-listed courses have the same course title, calendar description, course content, level (first digit of the course number), and credit value, but subject codes and course numbers may differ. Cross-listed courses are identified as such in the 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 Calendar.

  • Cross-listing proposals must have the approval of all relevant departments, portfolio curriculum review bodies, Education Council standing committees, and Education Council.
  • Course content, calendar description, format, contact hours, methods of evaluation, and selection and recommended assignment of faculty will reside with the originating department.
  • A full calendar description will be provided for the courses in all departments using the cross-listed course. The course description for XXX should conclude 鈥淭his course is also offered as YYY. Students with credit for YYY cannot take XXX for further credit.鈥
  • 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 will maintain a table of cross-listed courses to ensure:
    • Credit will be granted only once for the cross-listed courses.
    • Students will continue to meet program requirements for the number of courses taken outside the portfolio or outside the area of specialization.
    • A cross-listed course may only be used once to meet the requirements for a Major/Minor/Emphasis/Specialization/Option.
  • The costs involved in offering a cross-listed course will be negotiated between the departments.
  • Faculty members capable of teaching the cross-listed course need only exist in one department.
  • 香港六合彩开奖结果查询 will maintain a record of the consultation and agreement between the cross-listing departments.

Past practice has been to limit the calendar description to 60 words or less. This is not so much a requirement now that the calendar is online. The new course and course revision forms both tell you how many words you have provided in your description but do not limit you if you need a longer description.

The calendar description should be placed on your course outline. A technique some are using to provide additional information about the course is to add a portion to the course outline, immediately following the calendar description and separated from it by a heading (Course content, or Additional description, or Additional information), which provides expanded or additional information about the course. For example, for a computing course, you may wish to provide information about the software being used. For an English course, you may wish to describe a specific approach or emphasis you will be using. For a Topics course, you should provide details of the specific topic(s) being considered.

If you are developing policies which need to be approved by the Academic Regulations and Policy (ARP) standing committee and then Education Council, you may submit a policy proposal through the Kuali Curriculum Management system.
