This resolution was completed.  See Title 5 regulations found here.  

 

Whereas, The document “Recommendations Regarding Repeatability” attempts to redefine the guidelines by which courses can be designated as repeatable;

Whereas, The leveling of courses (such as beginning, intermediate, advanced) would allow for clear curricular demonstration of progressive development of skills and knowledge; and

Whereas, The document “Recommendations Regarding Repeatability” states repeatedly that “purposes currently served by repeatability in this area can be accomplished through existing curricular options” which is open to interpretation and therefore might lead to proliferation of extraneous courses;

Resolved, That the Academic Senate for California Community Colleges recommend limiting the leveling of courses to no more than four levels.
