Syllabus Makeover Challenge (Part 1 - Standard) (Fall 2019)

This is part 1 of a two-part workshop. Having a standard syllabus is essential. Once you have a standard syllabus, consider registering for part 2 to create a visual syllabus.

Outcome

Create a standard (accessible) syllabus.

Introduction

Creating a course syllabus and making it available to students is an essential responsibility as an instructor. Often the syllabus gives students a first impression about what to expect from the course.

A syllabus outlines a course’s organization, goals, requirements, policies, expectations, etc. (but is not intended to be used to outline details of the entire course).

Your challenge is to create a standard (accessible) syllabus or makeover your current syllabus into a standard syllabus that incorporates UDL principles.

Workshop Objectives

1. Share your “why” statement.
2. Access KSCM to get information from your approved course outline.
3. Use your approved course outline contents and add your additional information to create a standard (accessible) syllabus which incorporate UDL principles.
4. Add your syllabus to Laulima to make it accessible to students.
