This in-person session is designed for those who may be unfamiliar with the required elements of a Dalhousie syllabus or are new to creating a syllabus and are learning what they might want to include.
In this session, we will review the core components of a course syllabus as outlined in the Dalhousie Syllabus Policy. Tips on how to make your syllabus more effective will be discussed. Participants are asked to bring a syllabus they are working on as time will be allotted to reflection and gathering peer feedback. If participants are not currently teaching a course, they are invited to bring a syllabus for a course they taught in the past or would like to teach in the future.
Intended Audience
Anyone working on or with course syllabi, including faculty, staff, postdocs, and graduate students.
Presenter
Elizabeth Gillis, Educational Developer
*Please note that the B400 classroom is in the basement of the Killam Library. We are aware of, and apologize for, the accessibility barriers associated with this room. If you require the use of an elevator to reach this room, one of the CLT staff will have to access the elevator with you, using their key card. Please let us know in advance so that we can facilitate a smooth and timely transition to the basement.
We also ask that participants be respectful of those with significant allergies and avoid wearing perfume, aftershave, cologne, and highly scented hairspray, soaps, lotions, and shampoos.
