Issues with the subject groupings
The following issues and questions might well result in changes to the subjects, groupings, templates used to publish and the relationships to degrees/programmes.
Issue | Proposed approach/solution | Who should be involved | Agreed solution or resolution | Implemented in spreadsheet | Implemented on website and/or app | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
1 | Health AoS crosses two faculties. Problematic for homepage listing widget. | While learning more about PG it became clear that Clinical Research fits better in to Biomedical Sciences. but have not yet heard back | Check solution with Johan, Keith. Maybe then with SME for Biomedical Sciences. Emailed Johan and Keith (copied in Dave) | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
2 | Each subjects in the Health AoS was written up as PG subject. Makes some maintenance and navigation patterns more difficult. | Move each subject to it's own single, PG-only AoS, but allow publishing on PG subject template. Delete Health AoS Change name of Health Care to Health, to align with the Calendar | Wider team has discussed many times Second issue is out with SME for consideration Emailed Stuart and Kristina | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
3 | Greek and Latin as UG subjects are available as majors in the BA and subjects in the GDipArts. They are also PG subjects in the BA(Hons) and PGDipArts. However, they 'become' Classics in the MA. Classical Studies is a UG and PG subject through all FHSS academic qualifications. | Make three PG subject pages:
| Stuart and Kristina Discussed with Stuart and Kristina. They agree. | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
4 | English Literature is the name of the UG subject and English the name of the PG one. Are they the same. How do we handle this in the app? | Leave AoS as it is and name PG subject English. Use content/wording to segway. | Stuart and Kristina Discussed with Stuart and Kristina. They agree. | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
5 | Creative Writing is an AoS we skipped over while doing UG, as it contains a single, mostly-PG subject. | Publish on the AoS template as a single PG subject mapped to the MA, but also include the UG courses listing widget. See if UG discoverability falls away and solve that issues only if it emerges. | Jane, writer. | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
6 | Can Innovation and Commercialisation exist only as a PG programme page, or whether it should have a single, PG-only subject page? | Would prefer a subject page, but need to explore the 'mappings' straight to a qualification if looking for something to study. Probably use a prof-prog. | Discussed with Nathan. We need a PG subject page for the purposes of web maintenance. and mapping. | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
7 | Literacy Translation hasn't yet been written up as an AoS. | I propose that Literacy Translation is a single PG-only subject AoS, but on a PG subject template. Same solution as implemented for Nursing Science. | SME, writer | Team agreed 13/9 |
| |
8 | Music: I have been unable to determine the actual subjects we require at PG level. | Need SME assistance to determine the actual subjects in NZSM PG qualifications and also where the PhD cf Doctor of Music is the highest qualification. Especially what subjects MFA(CP) maps from/to? | Gabe and Paul to discus with SME | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
9 | Social Policy is not only PG, now that we have categorised GDipArts as UG. | Make Social Policy both UG and PG | Check with Kristina and Stuart Discussed with Stuart and Kristina. They agree. | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
10 | I am unsure how we should handle Petroleum Geoscience and probably need to speak to the SME | Do we need a PG subject? Is it a prof-prog? | Writer to check with SME. | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
11 | Meteorology-Solid Earth split of Geophysics at UG doesn't seem to useful at PG level | Single PG subject page, linked to from both UG subject sections. | Check with Johan and Keith Emailed Johan and Keith | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
12 | Development Studies is currently both an AoS and a subject on another AoS. Not really kosher. | Leave as it is | Jane, SME | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
13 | Do we write up all non-PhD doctorates and higher degrees as ‘in-app programmes’? | |||||
14 | What subject(s) does the Master of Design Practice map from? Not yet CUAP approved. | MFA mapped straight from each of the Design subjects. Will this programme do likewise? | SME, writer | |||
15 | What subject(s) does the Master of Design Technology map from? Not yet CUAP approved. | MFA mapped straight from each of the Design subjects. Will this programme do likewise? | SME, writer | |||
16 | What subject(s) does the Graduate Certificate in Restorative Justice Practice map from? CUAP approved. | Create a new subject and place it in three existing areas of study:
| SME, writer Dean of Education says map to Education, not Teacher Education | Team agreed 13/9 | ||
17 | What subject(s) does the Master of Migration Studies map from? CUAP approved. Can students also enroll in the PGCert and PGDip? | Can it map from Geography or does it need a new subject (e.g. Human Geography)? | SME, writer Emailed Johan and Keith Programm under review, so leave it till end of PG Science and touch base again. | |||
18 | What subject(s) does the Master of Global Management map from? CUAP approved. | Can it map from Management or does it need a new subject? | SME, writer | |||
19 | What subject(s) does the Master of Global Marketing map from? CUAP approved. | Can it map from Marketing or does it need a new subject? | SME, writer | |||
20 | What subject(s) does the Master of International Trade (and the associated PGDip) map from? CUAP approved. | While Law are the main faculty, this doesn't seem the best subject for a user to find it. Neither do the other contributing course areas of Development Studies, Economics, Maori Studies and International Relations. | SME, writer | |||
21 | What subject(s) does the Master of Maori and Indigenous Business map from? Not yet CUAP approved. | New subject in Maori Studies AoS. What AoS in the Business mega-area? | SME, writer | |||
22 | What subject(s) does the Postgraduate Certificate in Global Business map from? CUAP approved. | No idea | SME, writer | |||
23 | What subject(s) does the Master of Science in Society map from? CUAP approved. | Science in Society is an AoS and it contains one subject Science in Context. Do we add a new PG-only subject or change the current subject name (against our own best advice) and make it UG/PG | Check with Johan and Keith Emailed Johan and Keith | Team agreed 13/9 |
