Large Enrollment Courses for UC Students and undergraduate applicants DRAFT Data contained here came from the following sources: -- UC student coursetaking from the TIE data set, focusing on the large enrollment courses that seem to be common across the campuses (Table 1) -- AP courses taken by UC freshman applicants from UC Apply (Table 2) -- Lower division courses taken by CCC applicants from UC Apply (Table 3) We used these data to come up with a very rough approximation of the potential demand for the OIPP courses from these 3 sources; this is contained in the attached table 4. Appendix 1 has the top 10 courses by enrollment at each UC campus as shown in the TIE data. Appendix 2 has more details about how these data were compiled.

APPENDIX 2. TECHNICAL DETAILS This report uses four sets of data, analyzed by various course lists:
“Common course” list of gen ed and
major-prep courses AP Course list
Common “subjects”
Pilot project phase I online courses
UC Freshmen-reported AP classes, fall 2010 Table 2 Table 4 UC Freshmen-reported CCC classes, fall 2010 Table 2 Table 4 UC Transfers reported CCC classes, fall 2010 Table 3 Table 4 TIE data (all classes offered at UC), 2008-09 and 2009-10 Table 1 Table 2 Table 4 The analysis used two primary strategies for coding courses. The first strategy, used for TIE data, looked at the largest classes in TIE data and came up with a common coding system to represent approximately equivalent course content across the UC campuses. This allowed analysis of the TIE data across campuses. The AP courses and current online courses were also coded according to the common coding system. The second strategy used was to search course names using various string and wildcard searches. The CCC data reported by UC freshmen and transfers was searched this way. Because course names differ among the community colleges, this strategy provided a practical way to parse tens of thousands of courses. It provides an approximation of the subject content of most classes, but the estimates are somewhat crude. Because the high school and CCC courses are self-reported, a large amount of error exists in the data. Even cursory examination reveals large numbers of spelling errors, courses coded as “AP” that are not AP, courses not coded as “AP” which are AP, and other problems that make summary searching of the data difficult. Therefore, the estimates provided should be treated as estimates that generally err on the side of caution.

Introduction to Information (Information 10) The study of information is an interdisciplinary science that draws on aspects of computer science, cognitive science, psychology, sociology, economics, business, law, library studies and communication. This lower division survey course introduces undergraduates to the major issues involved with the science and management of digital information and prepare them for more advanced courses in the field, as well as for working with information in a career or social settings. Skills such as information organization and retrieval, information design, evaluation, analysis and synthesis are critical for UC students in today's world of information overload and a growing global reliance on and use of information technology. Ultimately, the course will equip students to be active members of the 21st century knowledge community.
