Handbook for Articulation Task Forces, 1986-87.
Wright, Irene
Designed to assist Arizona community college and university representatives from specific academic disciplines in their discussions of articulation of degree programs, curricula, transfer of students, and other related topics, this handbook provides information on how to implement statewide postsecondary articulation. Following introductory material on the state's Improving the Articulation-Transfer Function between Two- and Four-Year Institutions Project, the handbook describes an articulation task force (ATF), how to establish one, its functions, and its activities. This section indicates that an ATF facilitates the transfer of credits from the community colleges to the universities, develops methods to communicate accurate information to students, reviews and updates the content of the "Arizona Higher Education Course Equivalency Guide," and establishes a communication process regarding program changes. The handbook goes on to describe the responsibilities of the community college ATF member, the university ATF member, the ATF chairperson, the ATF host, the Host Course Equivalency Guide (CEG) Coordinator, and the CEG Editor. Next, the process for updating the CEG is diagrammed. Appendices include information on the Academic Program Articulation Steering Committee; samples of information on ATF meetings and reports; CEG materials; a sample university curriculum check sheet for majors, Arizona community college districts and public universities, and ATF information.
