RATIONALE:

This PBD program has not been offered for years because the Faculty of Education will no

longer mount one of its key courses, a practicum. The Linguistics Department has stated that

it

will mount the practicum itself, but this has not been accepted. However, the Faculty of

Education will not modify the program either; thus it exists in zombie form and misleads

students

by continuing to be in the calendar.

It

must go.

If

this course replicates the content of a previously approved course to the extent that students

should

not receive credit for both courses

I

this should be noted in the prerequisite.

Effective term and year:

Summer

2010
