Computer Competency Requirement for Faculty Syllabi

Computer Competency Requirement

All Undergraduate and New College students who entered St. Edward's University under the Fall 1999 catalog and later are required to satisfy the Computer Competency Requirement (CCR). The CCR modules comprise Introduction to Computers, WWW and Internet Communications, Basic Library Research, Introduction to Word Processing, Introduction to Spreadsheets, and Multimedia Presentations. Students must satisfactorily complete a web-based test over each module in order to fulfill this requirement. As the faculty incorporate more technology into curriculum, having students complete this requirement before or in conjunction with a class will allow focus on class subject matter without devoting class time teaching basic computer skills. For more information about the Computer Competency Requirement, go to: www.stedwards.edu/it_dept/competency
