Learning Log 7 (outside of class room)


The Course Syllabus

           In any given course the syllabus is, typically, the first indicator of a specific instructor's expectations of students and offers students a rather detailed description of both course content and assignments. The course syllabus functions as an academic "contract" between the instructor (and by extension, department, college and university) and student. Thus, it should be clear, explicit, and complete, and it should NOT contain imprecise, vague, or ambiguous phrases. The course syllabus must be provided free of charge (S.R. 6.1.1), and each student must receive the syllabus during the first or second class meeting. Syllabi can be distributed electronically (e.g., via e-mail, Web sites, etc.) providing the electronically distributed syllabus contains all the necessary information, is posted electronically at the very beginning of the course, AND remains posted throughout the semester.  
Regardless of its form (paper or electronic), the course syllabus must contain sufficient information so that students have a clear understanding of the course, its content, assignments, grading criteria, and the like. It must also specify course policies and procedures, especially those that in any way may affect student grades. At a minimum, the course syllabus must outline the following items:
B.      Course Descriptions
C.      Dead Week
D.      Course Policies
