College of Westchester Term: 8/1/18-8/31/18 Amount: $6,800.00 Scope: Agreement between the Roosevelt High School Early College Studies program (RHS-ECS) and The College of Westchester (CW) students enrolled at RHS-ECS are afforded the opportunity to earn a minimum of 24 college-level credits in RHS-ECS courses counting towards both their New York State high school graduation requirements and the equivalent credit-bearing courses at CW. In order to ensure that the courses delivered within the RHS-ECS curriculum and taught by RHS-ECS faculty are properly aligned with the equivalent CW courses in terms of learning outcomes and required competencies, and that College courses offered at CW’s campus to RHS-ECS students advance their knowledge toward their chosen career goals, a team of CW faculty and curriculum designers will facilitate a series of four professional development workshops for RHS-ECS faculty at RHS. The courses will be focused towards applied computer science most closely aligned with RHS-ECS’s current areas of study in Graphic Design and Media Communications. |
