Engaging the University, Faculty, Staff, Students Through a General Education Curricular Change
Abstract
The purpose of this chapter is to describe the development, implementation, and assessment of a new curriculum program at a four-year state university and how to build the engagement of stake holders. A major curriculum reform was instituted within a 4-year state college located in the northeastern part of the United States. When a liberal arts curriculum shift occurs, there are often gaps between the design and practice of the curricular transformation. The way to fulfill these gaps between design and practice are to clearly involve and engage key stakeholders. The background information includes the two curricular reforms and the rationale for these variations. The writers continued by discussing three issues involved when making these curricular changes. The cultural of the university needs an adjustment, as well as the communication practices and stakeholder perspectives. The authors concluded the chapter by mentioning four recommendations for consideration when designing, implementing, and maintaining a new curricular reform in higher education.
