Creating a Syllabus to Educate and Motivate
with Barbara J. Millis
A syllabus can fulfill a number of functions. It can offer basic course information (a "roadmap" or a "contract"), but it can also inspire students to excel in your course. Core data is essential—course objectives, the schedule of assignments, evaluation requirements, etc.—but a well-thought-out syllabus will also shape the nature of the learning experience. This experiential workshop will look beyond the essential components of a syllabus—whether paper produced or a "syllaweb"—to more sophisticated issues that will do more than "protect" you: they will also "promote" you and your learning objectives.
