SUMMER & FALL 2012 FOCUS PROPOSAL FORMS
|
|
-for
UHM faculty members-
"Regular" Focus forms
should be
submitted when an individual instructor wants a new Focus
designation or needs to renew an expired designation for
his/her course. (Note: Instructors who have "active"
approval do NOT have
to submit a form.

|
-for Department
Chairpersons only-
|
"COURSE-based"
forms
(for Department Chairs and Focus Coordinators
only) should be submitted when a
department has a
course that inherently meets the Focus
Hallmarks.
Click here for examples of approved course
descriptions for courses with a course-based Focus
designation.
Upon approval, all sections of
the course will be designated with the requested
Focus. Individual instructors will not have
to submit Focus forms. |
|
|
"STAFF" forms
(for Department Chairs and Focus Coordinators only)
should be submitted
when a department
has unstaffed sections of courses that traditionally
have a Focus designation.
Upon approval, the unstaffed sections
will be designated with the requested Focus. Once
instructors are assigned, they must submit their own
Focus form to explain how they will teach the course
in accordance with the Focus Hallmarks. |
