B : May, 2013 Syllabus Guidelines Intent: The course syllabus template is intended to serve as a reference tool that describes components of a comprehensive course syllabus. It is a Word document that can be customized. Instructors have the choice of using this template to develop a course syllabus by filling in the spaces they select and deleting or revising other sections. If this template is not used to construct a syllabus, faculty are encouraged to include this type of information in their course syllabi in order to clarify expectations and to support student learning and success. The syllabus is an important document that serves to establish the working relationship between the instructor and the students. The syllabus is an important resource for providing guidance to students, resolving occasional disagreements, and in some instances syllabi have been considered by courts to be almost as binding as contracts, so please take care to write a comprehensive and substantive syllabus. Benefits: These guidelines could serve as a tool to help faculty construct syllabi that are informative for students and useful for their departments. Specific benefits include the following: Orientation for new faculty May be used for continuous improvement of existing syllabi To improve communication with students To articulate expectations of students, to minimize student complaints, and to resolve disputes when they occur To help with accreditation preparation (define learning activities, expectations, and outcomes plus document assessment of student learning) Notes on Definitions: SSCC offers definitions of key terms: Syllabus: The document faculty distribute to students in their classes. This document should be consistent with the officially approved course outline on file in the division office and Office of Instruction, as well as contain useful information about instructor expectations, course requirements, etc. Course Outline (also referred to as a master course outline): The document used to present new or revised courses to the Curriculum and Instruction Committee (CIC), which identifies key elements that should be reflected in the syllabus for every section of a course taught by different faculty.
