Curriculum

Materials used to deliver courses (both academic and non-academic) offered by the university. May include course recordings, presentation materials, and class handouts. Excludes course syllabi, covered by Course Syllabi (21-06-69633.0003.18443).

Material used by departments in preparation of catalog copy and class schedules. Retention for these records is minimal, as the final product is the official course schedule, the official catalog entry, or the approved budget allocation.

Recordings of courses made to facilitate teaching and learning remotely.

Syllabus for each departmental course offered per quarter as collected by the respective department or academic administrative unit.

Provides a record of the process of curriculum development and/or revision. Includes records specifically relevant to curriculum proposals or revisions, and records documenting the process of review through department- and college-level committees, including approval or rejection. The official record of curriculum changes is what is approved by the ACC and implemented in the catalog. The records of curriculum committees therefore have shorter retention requirements.

Records of relationships with experiential learning sites, including practica, internship, and student teaching sites. May include evaluations of host sites as required in university policy, if not part of an individual student's file. The official contracts with experiential learning sites should be held by Contracts Administration.

Records of field trips should be held as travel records, unless participants are signing a hold harmless agreement, in which case the records should be held under Hold Harmless Agreements (see the "Risk Management" section of this schedule).
