Ozarka College Curriculum Proposal

OZARKA COLLEGE CURRICULUM PROPOSAL

Course Title
(Or Program) / Medical Terminology I
CIP Code / HIT 1203
Contact Person(s) / Ruby Johnson/Serelda Johnson
Effective date of proposal / Spring 2013
Proposal Summary / CIP Code change. Changing it from HIM to HIT.
Compressing this course into an 8-week, 3-credit hour, Internet course.
In another curriculum proposal, I am asking the committee to consider HIT 1213 Medical Terminology II to also be a compressed Internet course. This will allow a student to take these two courses back to back and complete 6-credit hours in the same time frame as normally 3-credit hours are completed.
Need for the proposal / Compressing this course will meet one of the objectives for the PACE grant: accelerate time to completion.

Faculty needed for proposal / None
