Overview • What is C-ID? • C-ID and Articulation • C-ID and TMC • C-ID and Your Curriculum • The Future of C-ID • Questions and discussion
What is C-ID? • Origins • A replacement for CAN • A replacement for LDTP • A response to various mandates and needs from legislature and others • CCCCO supported • Faculty driven & intersegmental
What is C-ID? • A “common course numbering system” • A set of descriptors to help “translate” between courses at different institutions • A way to streamline articulation and transfer
What is C-ID? • A bilateral system of articulation • The building blocks for TMCs / SB-1440 degrees • A tool to help in your curriculum development
What else is C-ID? • ..an established infrastructure for intersegmental vetting. • ..the only existing venue for the convening of intersegmental discipline faculty. • ..a well-positioned initiative to facilitate intersegmental collaboration. • ..funded for foreseeable future.
Where can one get C-ID information? • www.c-id.net • General project information • Discipline list servs (sign up today!) • Descriptors • For review and finalized • Established articulation • COR Review • TMC • For review and finalized
C-ID and Articulation • A system of bilateral articulation (CCC to CSU and CCC to CCC) • Descriptor-based • Like a general course outline • Specify the “minimum requirements” for a course to receive a C-ID designator
What is C-ID? • Descriptor example • C-ID MATH 240 Ordinary Differential Equations, and; • Hartnell College’s MAT 5
C-ID and Articulation • C-ID Approval means • Your course is articulated to every CSU that has articulated the C-ID descriptor • Your course is articulated to every other CCC course approved for the same descriptor • You must accept every other CCC course approved for the same descriptor in lieu of your own course
C-ID and TMC • C-ID descriptors used to “build” TMCs • C-ID descriptors developed and approved intersegmentally • CCC courses approved for C-ID descriptors have been reviewed by CSU and CCC faculty • CCC courses approved for C-ID descriptors carry bilateral articulation
C-ID and TMC • C-ID approval and SB-1440 degrees • Currently, CCC courses do not need C-ID approval to be part of an approved SB-1440 degree • BUT in the future they will
C-ID and Your Curriculum • C-ID descriptors can aid in developing your curriculum • Like a general course outline • Specify the “minimum requirements” for a course to receive a C-ID designator • Developed by an intersegmental group of CCC and CSU faculty • Articulated by many CSU and CCC campuses
C-ID and Your Curriculum • C-ID descriptor components • Course description • Minimum units • Prerequisites & advisories • Course content • Laboratory activities • Course objectives • Methods of evaluation • Sample textbooks or other support materials
C-ID and Your Curriculum • Benefits to submitting courses for C-ID • Increased articulation with CSUs • Possibility for increased articulation with UCs and private/out of state universities • Bilateral articulation with CCCs • Future SB-1440 degree approval • Reinvention of wheel not required!
C-ID and Your Curriculum • Working with discipline faculty • Provide descriptor as an example/tool • Ask if other CCC courses approved for the descriptor will be accepted in lieu of your course • Other ideas??
The Future of C-ID • 2011-12 • C-ID in ASSIST • Finalize more descriptors • Add disciplines and courses • Continue support of TMCs • Top 20 Discipline Status
Top 20 Discipline Status (2007-2008) • Business Administration • Psychology • Liberal Studies • Criminal Justice • Sociology

The Future of C-ID • Other topics • C-ID as a means to address the “similar” courses issue? • C-ID as a means of developing descriptors for courses that meet multiple purposes? • C-ID as a tool to facilitate course updates?
