  1. Learning That Matters: Building a Culture of Generalizable Education Learning that has a substantial and lasting impact beyond any single course, major, or degree

  2. SACSCOC recommendations:Summary • Reassess the scope of the proposal • Reconsider the “all students” ambition • Review organizational structures supporting the QEP • Clarify terminology around general education and the core curriculum • Align budget more specifically with goals • Improve monitoring/reporting of student metrics • Clarify and strengthen assessment plans

  3. VCU’s response • Maintain ambition, but narrow scope to a case-in-point: general education at VCU • Focus on two key learning outcomes: integrative thinking (a paradigm of connected learning) and digital fluency • Support outcomes through university-wide curricular innovation and a focus on digital engagement (“e-portfolio 3.0”)

  4. Proposed Timetable • 2014-2015 • University-wide conversation, study, and recommendations • Pilot courses aligned with digital engagement/fluency and integrative thinking • 2015-2016 • New gen ed courses available from all units, open to all students • New gen ed curriculum developed, implementation begins
