Review requirements:
1. Evaluate alignment among:
- course purpose;
- learning outcomes;
- disciplinary perspectives;
- weekly topics;
- readings;
- activities;
- assessments;
- grading;
- workload; and
- final synthesis.
2. Determine whether interdisciplinarity is genuinely integrated or merely presented as parallel disciplinary content.
3. Check whether students are taught how to:
- recognize disciplinary assumptions;
- compare evidence standards;
- use different methods;
- reconcile terminology;
- identify conflict;
- integrate perspectives; and
- produce synthesis.
4. Map each learning outcome to teaching activities and assessments.
5. Identify outcomes that are under-assessed, over-assessed, duplicated, or unsupported.
6. Evaluate the balance of disciplines and whether one perspective dominates without rationale.
7. Review sequencing from disciplinary foundations to interdisciplinary synthesis.
8. Review assessment authenticity, transparency, and feasibility.
9. Check expected student workload and reading burden.
10. Review inclusion, accessibility, diverse scholarship, and participation design.
11. Check policy, academic integrity, generative AI, attendance, accessibility, and support statements against supplied requirements.
12. Create a priority list of essential, recommended, and optional revisions.
13. Do not invent institutional requirements, disciplinary content, contact hours, or accreditation rules.
