Best Practices in Teaching at CSU: Rethink the Syllabus

This three-week, mostly asynchronous course TAKES PLACE IN CANVAS. Participants can expect to spend 4-5 hours per week completing assignments, discussions and readings. View your syllabus through multiple lenses to create a document that gives students the information they need to be successful in your course. Your syllabus is often the first point of contact between you and your students. Word choice, formatting, and visual appeal all contribute to students’ perception of your course and their sense of belonging. Rethinking your syllabus gives you an opportunity to apply research based techniques to your syllabus design, including a course map that guides instruction and learning.
