Classification of courses under new requirements... help! - scribbler - 08-07-2013
For those of you that have access to a TESC planner, could you tell me how the following would work out?
New categories and course examples to meet those categories: General Education Courses
New list of BA-Communications requirements: Thomas Edison State College: Communications
For the "Electives in Intellectual and Practical Skills" requirements, obviously the DSST Intro to Computing test would suffice for 3 hours. Other courses such as Public Speaking, Technical Writing, News Reporting, and Communications categories would be applied to the Communications electives - would they fulfill the Intellectual & Practical Skills requirement at the same time? (Does it count twice towards the requirements, fulfilling both - but only once in # of hours towards the 120 total?)
For the Personal and Social Responsibility category, Sociology fulfills the Diversity/Global Literacy requirement. But for Responsible Ethical Leadership and Other Ethics or Diversity Course - what satisfies those requirements other than the obvious "Ethics in America" or "Business Ethics" type courses?
Thanks!

Unless things have changed, TESC has never used one course to fill more than one requirement.

Intro to the Middle East DSST, World Religions DSST, Marriage and the Family TECEP, Human/Cultural Geography DSST, and Cultural Diversity ECEP (formerly ECE). These should all fulfill the Other Ethics or Diversity Course requirement.
