 ==== The TODO list for the curriculum committee ====
-==Brainstormed list from January 22, 2015 ==
+and 1200  will be DE only from here on out.
+Fanshawe- pathways.  Game programming post graduate certificate.  One year focussed on game programming.  Sending students on a coop term to do a game programming semester.  Admissions problem.
++2 proposal  for honours.
+==April 7 ==
+  * - coop schedule
+  * - remove old courses from pre reqs
+  * - examine pre-requisites and make tree visualization
+  * - examine enrollment wrt courses
+  * - textbook change request for 1500
+  * - summer semester and growth
+  * - impact of splitting large courses-  learning outcomes first and second year
+  * - elect a chair
+  * - explore splitting off a introductory course for non-majors
+== March 18 ==
+- add 3490 to soft eng
+   Motion:  Add CIS*3490 as a required course for the Software Engineering Major.   Remove .5 credit CIS elective at the 3000 level from the Software Engineering Major.   Replace prerequisite wording from <insert here>  with <insert here>  and take out 2420
+- change the pre-requisite for 3110 to be 2520
+  pending consultation  with and favourable feed back from Engineering Curriculum Committee
+- move 1910/2910 to first and second semester
+- harder first semester programming courses
+- propose a new course to split off 1500 into ‘plan to continue’ and ‘this is all I’m going to take for programming’ sets.
+-change some of the classes to be lab-free?
+-examine prerequisite structure
+-not easy to become a minor
+-should add 3150 as an option in the third year electives
+==Priorities as of January 22, 2015 ==
   - Mobile Major (see in-progress section)
   - 1910/2910 semester shuffle and rework. (see in-progress section)
   - Co-listing of 4th year and grad classes ((see in-progress section)
+== Completed ==
+  *  Greg has contacted the other departments to see if they will agree to CIS*1000 and CIS*1200 being DE only. No concerns. Responses: {{:committees:curriculum:cis1000-1200de-consultation.pdf|}}
+  * Mike has completed a document outlining a basic rationale for the language change in CIS*1500. {{:committees:curriculum:cis1500_2python2015.pdf|}}
+== In progress ==
+  * Judi is meeting with Patricia T to learn about timelines.  If you have other questions for her please add them below.
+          * external reviewer
+          * senate
+          * bugs
+          * new courses
+          * course revisions
+          * library
+          * general timelines
+          * colisting courses
+          * 1500 early
+  * Mike is looking for other programs in mobile computing
+  * Everyone is going to review the mobile computing courses and assess the proposal to ensure learning outcomes are addressed sufficiently
+  * Greg (with consultation from Laura) will create at 2-3 possible schedules for the mobile major (for coop and non-coop)
+  * Li (and Mike) are looking into which courses can be co-listed as combined graduate/undergrad.
+       * Judi to take it to communication committee next week.
+  *Joe is investigating the possibility of changing the math courses so that there is a single first semester math course that is required for all majors and then 3rd year elective courses to cover more advanced topics.  This will solve the prerequisite problem for the SoftEng program with 3490
+       *joe will talk to pascal and Charlie
+       *Charlie sees no problem shifting 1910 to first semester
+       *1910 could be the prerequisite for 3490 but we might need to rework 3490
+       *security and 3490 does involve calculus...
+       *would be good to add a linear algebra course- numerical methods
+       *mobile major needs both math classes
+== Ready to go to school council ==
+  * A proposal to offer CIS*3750 and CIS*3760 twice a year so that all students can take CIS*3750 first is ready to go to the School for a vote.
+  *  3490 should be added to the Software Engineering program.  Joe's 1910/2910 investigation is necessary before this can go to school council.
+== Unordered list of pending items ==
   *  coop schedule-summer academic term
   *  summer academic term-engineering??

   * The committee was not convinced that the change in the order to CIS*2030 and CIS*3120 was necessary. It did  support the move to simulation for the lab components of CIS*2030 and suggested that it would be reasonable to give teaching relief to redesign the labs to run on simulators instead of single board computers.
   * The calendar description of CIS*2050 is still undecided. The committee came up with a counter proposal but David Chiu who brought the original request for the change was not happy with the committee’s description. His response was the the Director should decide what to do but this doesn’t really address the problem.
