The Course Syllabus: A Learning-Centered Approach (JB - Anker)

The Course Syllabus: A Learning-Centered Approach (JB - Anker)

When it was first published in 1997, <i>The Course Syllabus</i> became the gold standard reference for both new and experienced college faculty. Like the first edition, this book is based on a learner-centered approach. Because faculty members are now deeply committed to engaging students in learning, the syllabus has evolved into a useful, if lengthy, document. Today's syllabus provides details about course objectives, requirements and expectations, and also includes information about teaching philosophies, specific activities and the rationale for their use, and tools essential to student success.
