1 REVISED: October/2007 Program: Adult Literacy/High School Diploma Course of Study: High School Diploma Course: 1:2004 Social Studies/Social Science World History/1 Course Description: This competency-based course begins with a brief Credits: 5 Hours: 60 look at the dawn of civilization, followed by a study of the early societies of the Near East and Africa and the classical civilizations of India, China, Greece, and Rome. Students then undertake a concurrent geographic and chronological examination of social, cultural, and technological change from 500 A.D. to 1914 in both the Western and non-western world, including a comparative study of Europe and Japan during the High Middle Ages and the influence of the European Renaissance, Reformation, and Scientific Revolution in our modern world. The course then focuses on a consideration of the impact of Enlightenment ideas on the rise of democratic ideals and explores the rise of nationalism into this century. The course seeks to foster and develop the skills of written expression, interpretation of graphic materials (especially the use and interpretation of maps), and critical thinking. The competencies in this course are aligned with the History-Social Science Content Standards for California Public Schools. This course has been approved to satisfy the a (history-social science) subject area of the UC/CSU a-g requirements for freshman admission. The NCAA has approved this course for use in establishing the initial-eligibility certification status of student-athletes from schools in the Division. Prerequisites: 1. A minimum reading level of 9.0 as measured by the TABE D7/8 reading comprehension test 2. Writing fluency at an English 1 placement level, determined by a student writing sample and evaluated by the receiving instructor 3. Recommendation of an instructor and/or a counselor After a student has completed this course, he/she may not be allowed to re-enroll in the course.

2 A MESSAGE to COMPETENCY-BASED COURSE OUTLINE USERS This competency-based course outline is for use by students, teachers, counselors and school administrators, advisory committees, and all others having interest in the course. Before enrolling, students can read the course competencies listed to help them (students) decide whether or not the course will meet their needs. After enrolling, a copy of the competencies can help a student track his/her progress through the course. Teachers can use competency-based areas and statements to gain an overview of the course. The competencies can be used to develop lesson plans and teaching strategies. The Instructional Materials and Other Resources page provides teachers with instructional support in the form of textbook titles, media and technology options, as well as the names of advisory personnel. Many course outlines provide sample lesson plans written by experienced teachers of the course. Counselors can use the course outline to explain course purpose, goals and content to students. Sharing competency lists with students will make the students aware of the minimal skills and knowledge they need to demonstrate after taking the course. This process can identify potential candidates for a course. Principals can scan the competency-areas and statements to decide if the content of a course should be offered at their school in order to meet the needs of the community which it serves. Competencies can be used to generate relevant questions and items for tests. The writing of individualized instructional contracts also needs to reflect the competency-based course outline components. Clearly defined competency-based areas, statements, and minimal competencies are the points upon which curriculum, instruction, and assessment focus.

3 THE DEVELOPMENT of a COMPETENCY-BASED COURSE OUTLINE Every approved CBE course outline is written by Los Angeles Unified School teachers who teach the course. All teacher/writers have been inserviced and certified by the Adult Curriculum Office to learn about competency-based education and the outline format. New courses and course revisions are initiated by school and/or central office subject area departments. The schools and the subject area departments share the responsibility for approving the subject content, hours, credits, etc. Teacher/writers submit their first draft to the appropriate central office subject area supervisor, specialist, consultant or adviser. Course outline draft copies are next submitted to the curriculum office. There information required by the District and the State is verified. The outlines are edited and entered into the course outline computer data base. One formatted copy of an outline, with every page stamped "Draft Copy Only, is either approved by the curriculum office or returned for clarification or improvement. Once signed off by the curriculum office an outline is routed back to the department that submitted it. When approved there, it is routed to the office of the Director of Instructional Services and finally to the Division's Assistant Superintendent for approval. The curriculum office then requests the required approvals by the LAUSD Board of Education. The curriculum office sends master file copies of every approved CBE outline to principals of all Community Adult Schools and Employment Preparation Centers. These masters are used to reproduce copies for counselors and teachers. Students, community members, and other interested parties may also request copies. The curriculum office maintains a limited inventory of all outlines for additional distribution. Changing needs are reflected in the constant development and revision of course outlines. It is an ongoing process designed to support the various demands of students, teachers, and the communities we serve. TOM CALDERON Adult Curriculum Office Instructional and Counseling Services -1-

4 CBE COMPETENCY BASED EDUCATION Course Outline Competency-Based Component Definitions Course descriptions state the major emphasis and content of the course. Competency areas are units of instruction based on related competencies. Competency statements are competency area goals that together define the framework and purpose of the course. Competencies fall on a continuum between goals and performance objectives and denote outcome of instruction. Competency-Based Philosophy Overview Competency-based instruction tells a student before instruction what skills, or knowledge he/she will demonstrate after instruction. A competency is stated as a minimum. This is the least a student has to demonstrate or know to be judged as competent. Stating competencies as minimums does not mean minimum instruction. Activities and opportunities should be provided for students to achieve maximum potential. Competency-based education provides instruction that enables each student to attain individual goals as measured against pre-stated standards. CBE instruction provides immediate and continual repetition and remediation. A student repeats tasks until achieving competence. In competency-based education the curriculum, instruction, and assessment share common characteristics based on clearly stated competencies. Curriculum, instruction and assessment in CBE are: explicit, known, agreed upon, integrated, performance-oriented, and adaptive. -2-

5 COURSE OUTLINE COMPETENCY-BASED COMPONENTS A course outline reflects the essential intent and content of the course described. Acceptable course outlines have six components. (Education Code Section 52506). Course outlines for all apportionment classes, including those in jails, state hospitals, and convalescent hospitals contain the six required elements: (EC 52504; 5CCR [b]; Adult Education Handbook for California [1977], Section 100) Course Outline Components GOALS AND PURPOSES Location Cover The educational goals or purposes of every course are clearly stated and the class periods are devoted to instruction. The course should be broad enough in scope and should have sufficient educational worth to justify the expenditure of public funds. The goals and purpose of a course are stated in the COURSE DESCRIPTION. Course descriptions state the major emphasis and content of a course, and are written to be understandable by a prospective student. PERFORMANCE OBJECTIVES OR COMPETENCIES pp Objectives should be delineated and described in terms of measurable results for the student and include the possible ways in which the objectives contribute to the student's acquisition of skills and competencies. Performance Objectives are sequentially listed in the COMPETENCY-BASED COMPONENTS section of the course outline. Competency Areas are units of instruction based on related competencies. Competency Statements are competency area goals that together define the framework and purpose of a course. Competencies fall on a continuum between goals and performance objectives and denote the outcome of instruction. Competency-based instruction tells students before instruction what skills or knowledge they will demonstrate after instruction. Competency-based education provides instruction which enables each student to attain individual goals as measured against prestated standards. Competency-based instruction provides immediate and continual repetition. In competencybased education the curriculum, instruction, and assessment share common characteristics based on clearly stated competencies. Curriculum, instruction, and assessment in competencybased education are: explicit, known, agreed upon, integrated, performance oriented, and adaptive. 3

6 COURSE OUTLINE COMPETENCY-BASED COMPONENTS (continued) INSTRUCTIONAL STRATEGIES Instructional techniques or methods could include laboratory techniques, lecture method, smallgroup discussion, grouping plans, and other strategies used in the classroom. Instructional strategies for this course are listed in the TEACHING STRATEGIES AND EVALUATION section of the course outline. Instructional strategies and activities for a course should be selected so that the overall teaching approach takes into account the instructional standards of a particular program, i.e., English as a Second Language, Programs for Older Adults, Programs for Adults with Disabilities. p. 17 UNITS OF STUDY, WITH APPROXIMATE HOURS ALLOTTED FOR EACH UNIT The approximate time devoted to each instructional unit within the course, as well as the total hours for the course, is indicated. The time in class is consistent with the needs of the student, and the length of the class should be that it ensures the student will learn at an optimum level. Cover pp Units of study, with approximate hours allotted for each unit, are listed in the COMPETENCY AREA STATEMENTS of the course outline. The total hours of the course, including work-based learning hours (community classroom and cooperative vocational education) is listed on the cover of every CBE course outline. Each Competency Area listed within a CBE outline is assigned hours of instruction per unit. EVALUATION PROCEDURES The evaluation describes measurable evaluation criteria clearly within the reach of the student. The evaluation indicates anticipated improvement in performances as well as anticipated skills and competencies to be achieved. p. 17 Evaluation procedures are detailed in the TEACHING STRATEGIES AND EVALUATION section of the course outline. Instructors monitor students' progress on a continuing basis, assessing students on attainment of objectives identified in the course outline through a variety of formal and informal tests (applied performance procedures, observations, simulations), paper and pencil exams, and standardized tests. REPETITION POLICY THAT PREVENTS PERPETUATION OF STUDENT ENROLLMENT After a student has completed all the objectives of the course, he or she should not be allowed to re-enroll in the course. There is, therefore, a need for a statement about the conditions for possible repetition of a course to prevent perpetuation of students in a particular program for an indefinite period of time.
