About Course Proposal Forms

A signed Course Proposal form is required for each course to be developed for TN eCampus. The Course Proposal assists the TN eCampus Curriculum Committee in making recommendations regarding each course. To submit a course proposal, Course Developers must:

1. Download and complete the Course Development Proposal Form
2. Include the completed proposal with all necessary campus signatures
3. Include the proposed syllabus based on the TN eCampus Syllabus template

Submitting the Course Proposal

Send the signed Course Proposal, course syllabus, and the faculty course developer’s vita/resumé to tnecampus@tbr.edu.

What happens next?

After the course proposal is received, it is reviewed for completeness and forwarded to the TN eCampus Curriculum Committee, who may share it with content area experts for review. Generally speaking the committee meets to review course proposals at least once per semester.  Should the committee require any issues to be addressed, they will return the proposal to the course developer for revision or clarification.  The committee can accept or reject proposals, as well as accept them on a conditional basis of specific tasks be completed.

Submitting a Course Proposal for Redevelopment

Over time, the need may arise to redevelop an existing course within the program. Situations that may bring about the need to redevelop a course might include:

• a new textbook
• a change in the course developer
• a significant change in the discipline-related materials of the course

While course developers are always welcomed and encouraged to continually improve their course, when a significant change is necessary, the developer may choose to put the course through the “redevelopment process.” The redevelopment of a course for monetary funds requires the prior approval from TN eCampus. Developers desiring to redevelop their courses must complete the TN eCampus Course Redevelopment form and submit it to the TN eCampus offices.

The redevelopment of courses should not take place within the Master Copy. Instead a Development Copy shell will be created in which all redevelopment modifications are made. The Master Copy of the course will continue to be used to teach the course until the redevelopment is complete and approved. At that point in time, the new redevelopment content will be placed into the Master Copy and be considered the current copy of the course.

Once completed, the form should be sent to tnecampus@tbr.edu.
