Required Elements
Every class must have a syllabus. A sample syllabus is available as a Word Document. At a minimum, the syllabus should contain a standardized cover sheet and information describing:
- course goals and objectives
- grading criteria, required attendance
- policy on late work
- field trips
- textbooks and supplies
- other course requirements
- course schedule.
You must submit your syllabus electronically to the Office of the Vice-Chancellor of Instruction (Word and PDF are the preferred ).
The format to organize this information (other than the cover sheet) is your choice. Each semester, your Department Chair must review your syllabus(s).
Assistance
If you need help in creating or revising your course syllabus, see either your Department Chair, your Vice-Chancello,r Dean, or the Instructional Developer. They will be glad to give you assistance. You are also encouraged to check the current College catalog for policies on grading, withdrawal from class, etc., to ensure that your course syllabi are consistent with these policies.
