| Description: |
What should a syllabus contain? How does the tone of a syllabus affect students? This workshop outlines components of a student-centered syllabus and discusses common classroom problems that can be avoided or minimized by a well-constructed syllabus. Participants will receive several handouts to support their design of a syllabus. This workshop is open to graduate students and postdoctoral scholars.
Participants will be able to:
1. Identify where to locate required and recommended elements regarding course design.
2. Recognize aspects of course syllabus design supporting engagement, classroom management, and student learning.
3. Construct a course syllabus that supports student engagement and learning. |
