[ACCESS News] Online course revisions

[Dr. Dennis D. Frey]

Julie,

We consider course revisions using the following triggers:

   1. Whenever a textbook in the course goes out of print.
   2. Whenever a professor gets enough complaints about one or more of
      the elements in the course.
   3. Whenever the professor believes that a revision is necessary.
   4. All courses are reviewed every two years for revision potential
      (course professor, department dean and at least two members of the
      academic committee).

We have found this method to be practical.

God bless you in your ministry at Huntington,
Dennis
