Proposed Changes in existing Education Department Programs
Department: Education
Contact: David A. Wiley, Ed.D., Chair, Education Department
Title of Existing Program: Secondary Education
First Offering: with catalog changes, Fall, 2002
Required credit hours for programs: by teaching area, variable from 132 to 143.5
Please see attached.
List all major and cognate area courses: Please see grids attached to this request. The existing grid and the revised grid for each secondary education teaching area are included for clarity.
New Courses: None are required for these sequences within Secondary Education
List any additional resources: Additional resources are not required outside of the additional enrollments in the teaching area courses required in the revised programs that are not required in the old programs. There is no indication that there is a problem given the numbers of students in the secondary education program. They are as follows from academic year 2000, 2001 and 2002 reports, by teaching area.
Undergraduate Secondary Education Majors by teaching areas
Biology / Chem. / Comm. / English / For.Lang. / Gen. Sci. / Math / Social St. / Physics1999-2000 / 5 / 0 / 0 / 10 / 1 / 1 / 12 / 13 / 1
2000-2001 / 2 / 1 / 0 / 2 / 1 / 0 / 10 / 13 / 0
2001-2002 / 7 / 3 / 0 / 6 / 2 / 1 / 6 / 8 / 1
Review Student Learning Outcomes and the assessment plan…: In that the teaching area courses are the focus of all changes, the relevant learning outcomes are within the “scholarship” domain of the Model for the Development of Professional Educators at the University of Scranton. The specific standards include: “Candidates implement the central concepts, tools of inquiry, and structures of content for various developmental levels,” and “Candidates utilize data gathering techniques including research, analytical processes, assessment and professional collaboration.” Academic assessment of these standards occur within each course and is also indicated by the appropriate PRAXIS II content area examination required for certification in the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania. Performance assessment occurs with field-based courses in the education major. Additionally, an exit portfolio will be submitted to enable program completion, and will include content as well as pedagogical knowledge through performance indicators.
Provide an update curriculum guide…: Please see attached “revisions pending approval.”
Using all information above, provide rationale...: Chapter 354 of the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania’s “School Code” changed programs in education in significant ways within the last several years. The University of Scranton Education Department is currently involved in altering the programs in secondary education to meet the new requirements that are part of that legislation. Regulations have been promulgated regarding means by which the letter and spirit of the law can be addressed. Clarifications have been issued by the Pennsylvania Department of Education (PDE) regarding implementation of Chapter 354, and preliminary meetings with our higher education representative have shown the approach used by the department to be in compliance with the regulations. Three specific regulations are addressed by the changes proposed:
- Within the first 48 semester hours, each student shall complete a minimum of six semester hours of mathematics.
- Within the first 48 semester hours, each student shall complete a minimum of six semester hours of English.
- Each secondary education major should complete the equivalent of a bone fide major in their content area. Note: The specific definition of this requirement does not necessitate a transcripted second major of the program at the institution.
Thus, the revision of the programs must meet the requirements of Chapter 354 (a state requirement) as indicated above, and the programs must each follow the theoretical framework of our NCATE (national accreditation) model which serves as a basis for all program assessment. Complicating this are the requirements of each of the academic specialty groups whose review is tied to our NCATE approval. With those constraints, the programs were designed to either meet the requirements for an official second major in the academic discipline of the teaching area, or come as close to that objective as is possible within reasonable sized programs. For those programs not resulting in a second major, the additional requirements for the second major are listed as a footnote to the specific teaching area program grid.
These changes are the end product of a process that began two years ago with the first meeting of department chairs and the Teacher Education Committee with the Education Department leadership. The initial meetings introduced the revisions being necessitated by the newly implemented Chapter 354. Subsequent to those meetings, the elementary and early childhood education programs were revised. Secondary education programs, since their numbers were relatively low, were targeted for revision after that. Work was continuous, but especially over the past year, communication between the Education Department and the academic department of the teaching area have resulted in the revisions being put forward in these revised grids. It is the opinion of all stakeholders that the programs as put forward have resulted in better programs in the secondary education area.
Proposed Changes in existing Education Department Programs

Title of Existing Program: Special Education
First Offering: with catalog changes, Fall, 2002
Required credit hours for programs: 132 credits
List all major and cognate area courses: Please see grids attached to this request. The existing grid and the revised grid for special education are included for clarity.
New Courses: None are required for these sequences within Special Education
List any additional resources: Additional resources are not required outside of the additional enrollments in the courses required in the revised programs that are not required in the old programs. There is no indication that there is a problem given the numbers of students in special education. They are as follows from academic year 2000, 2001 and 2002 reports:
Undergraduate Special Education Majors
