Syllabus from Scratch (for Graduate Students)

Are you drafting a syllabus? Whether the syllabus is for the Teaching Scholars program, the academic job market, or a dream course in the future, join us to begin designing an effective, student-centered syllabus from scratch. During this Syllabus from Scratch workshop, participants will learn about the elements of an effective and inclusive syllabus, define course learning goals, and discuss assessments that can promote student learning, engagement, and accessibility in their course. This session is facilitated by Caitlin DeClercq, Senior Assistant Director at the Center for Teaching and Learning.

By the end of the session, participants should be able to:
-Define and create course-level learning goals and measurable outcomes for each
-Design assignments/assessments to evaluate student learning
-Create intentional assessments that align with course learning goals

This workshop counts as a Pedagogy Workshop for participants enrolled in the Teaching Development Program.
