Intro

A Syllabus has the basic objective of communicating the instructor's course design. It should include things like goals, policies, organization, requirements and expectations. Use this checklist as a template to build your courses syllabi (yes, that's the plural of syllabus).

When to write the Syllabus?

Some like to write the course syllabus after the course has been mostly developed and about to start. Others use it as a planning tool in the course of developing. In any case, you should have the syllabus ready well in advance of the course start so that students can prepare for the course on time. Note that many students use the course syllabus when making course selection.

The Course Syllabus Checklist

Use this checklist as a template when developing your syllabus. Simply click on the "Use Checklist" button to create your copy and then enter the syllabus information under each group. Note that you can remove a complete group if it is not required.

Who it's for

This Syllabus Checklist is for teams that want consistent execution, less rework, and clear ownership.

  • Standardize quality - run the same Syllabus steps every time, regardless of who executes
  • Save time - reuse a proven Syllabus workflow instead of rebuilding processes from scratch
  • Improve accountability - assign owners and see what's done vs. what's pending
  • Onboard faster - use the Syllabus checklist as the SOP and training guide
  • Coordinate across roles - handoffs are clear and everyone works from the same source of truth

How to use it

How to use this Syllabus Checklist:

  1. Start by saving it - save as a Template if you'll reuse it, or as a Checklist if it's a one-off project.
  2. Customize it once for your workflow - remove what doesn't apply and add your team-specific steps.
  3. Assign ownership and execute - set owners/due dates where needed and track completion as work happens.
  4. Reuse without rebuilding - when Syllabus comes up again, start from your saved version and run it with clear ownership.
