Keep Teaching: Using your Syllabus to Guide Course Changes

In this webinar, you will engage in conversation about the adaptations you need to make to your course and how you will communicate those changes to your students. We will frame our conversation around a sample syllabus to guide your decisions about the components of your course that need to be updated. We will also discuss strategies for changing these components to ensure that your students can continue to learn effectively and efficiently in the new learning environment. Please have access to a copy of your course syllabi to refer to throughout the webinar.

Specifically, we will discuss what changes you might make to and how you can modify the language in your syllabus for the following components:

• How students should communicate with you
• How students can find course materials
• Assignments and assessments
• Collaborating in groups
• General course policies, including grading, attendance, and late work
