番茄直播app

A detailed syllabus helps both instructors and students. It communicates important information about a class:

• What is the course about?
• Why is the course important?
• What will students be doing in the class?
• What is required to complete the course successfully?

The syllabus also helps set the tone for the course. As part of 番茄直播app's compliance with SACSCOC accreditation, all instructors must upload their syllabi each semester to the Success Portal (directions).

All syllabi should contain the following information*:

Course Information
Instructor Information
Course Description and Format
Course Technology Requirements
Standards, Goals, Objectives, or Outcomes
Assignments/Learning Opportunities
Assessment or Evaluation Policy
Schedule of Activities or Assignments
Classroom Policies
Additional Information (at Instructor's Discretion)
Additional Faculty Resources for Preparing Syllabi

*Be sure to fully update information from semester-to-semester.

1. Course Information

• Course number and section
• Course term and year
• Course name
• Hours of credit
• Pre-requisites or co-requisites as listed in university catalog and why these pre-or co-requisites are important to success in the class
• If face-to-face, classroom location, room number, and time/day (remind students of commonly used abbreviations, i.e., T=Tuesday and R=Thursday)
• If online, is the class synchronous (regular meeting days and times) or asynchronous (no regular meeting dates or times)
• Department and College

2.  Instructor Information

• Instructor name
• Instructor contact information: office (if applicable), phone, 番茄直播app email address
• Instructor office or online availability hours (follow departmental/college policy for the expected number of office hours per week)

3. Course Description and Format

• Required out-of-class activities (field trips, projects, service learning, etc.). For field trip authorizations, please complete the form.
• Course format: Describe how the course will be conducted--lectures, discussions, fieldwork, research projects, etc. If the course is a hybrid (components both online and face-to-face, describe what will occur online and what will occur in class). Whether online, hybrid, or face-to-face, describe required technology and what students will need to be able to use to be successful in the course.

4. Course Technology Requirements

Sample Technology Syllabus Statement (modify to meet the needs of your class):
In this class, students will regularly use the following applications (list those applications that your class will use and what they will be used for):

• Office 365 for access to 番茄直播app email and to Microsoft applications that we will use regularly (Outlook, Teams, Word, Excel, PowerPoint, etc.).
• BlazeVIEW and Microsoft Teams to access course materials and to participate remotely.
• Others as needed (be sure to give clear instructions about how to access and identify if this application is not supported by the university)

To use these applications, students must have access to a laptop or computer, preferably with a webcam and mic. While it is possible for students to complete some work on their smartphones, this will not be sufficient in all instances, given the limitations of mobile devices. Hence, access to a computer is essential. Note that the University maintains a number of computer labs, which are available for student use. Laptops are also available for check-out on a first-come, first-served basis from the New Media Center in Odum Library.

You may also choose to list these further resources:

• IT provides a list of recommended technologies at /administration/it/helpdesk/personal-devices/recommended-technologies.php
• As a 番茄直播app student, you may download and install Microsoft Office 365 on up to 5 personal devices (/administration/it/helpdesk/employee-resources/employee-services/work-at-home-tech-guide.php)

If any examinations in the class will be virtually proctored, faculty should consult 番茄直播app’s Remote Proctoring Policy. Appendix B of that policy also includes a sample syllabus statement.

5. Standards, Goals, Objectives, or Outcomes

All syllabi should talk about what students should be able to know or do by the time they complete the course.

• Institutional standards, goals, objectives, or outcomes: such as general education outcomes, departmental learning outcomes (listed in the ), college-level standards, or professional organization standards
• Core IMPACTS Curriculum Course: Systemwide Orienting Questions, Learning Outcomes, and Career-Ready Competencies must be clearly listed in the syllabus for each Core IMPACTS course. See full information on Core IMPACTS, including domains and courses.
  

  Required Core IMPACTS Course Statement

  This is a Core IMPACTS course that is part of the XXXX area.

  Core IMPACTS refers to the core curriculum, which provides students with essential

  knowledge in foundational academic areas. This course will help students master course content and will support students’ broad academic and career goals.

  This course should direct students toward a broad Orienting Question:[Insert University System of Georgia Orienting Question here.]

  Completion of this course should enable students to meet the following Learning Outcome:[Insert University System of Georgia Learning Outcome here.]

  Course content, activities and exercises in this course should help students develop the following Career-Ready Competencies: [Insert University System of Georgia career-ready competencies here.]

6. Assignments/Learning Opportunities (explicitly aligned with the goals, objectives, or outcomes)

More detailed information for individual assignments may be provided separately but try to be as specific as you can about the following:

• general description of the assignments
• due dates (if these must be altered during the course of the term, be sure that all students are clearly informed of these changes)

7. Assessment or Evaluation Policy

• explanation of how much each assignment contributes to the overall grade for the class
• explanation of how grades are assigned
• policies for missed assignments, make-up assignments, late assignments, and/or extra credit. In developing these policies, consider how to combine flexibility with rigor as well as being able to adjust for official accommodations requests.

Recommended Syllabus Statement for Make-Up Work:
Make-Up Work: Make up work or alternative assignments will be determined by the professor and at the sole discretion of the professor. These assignments may or may not exactly duplicate the original and will not entitle other students to the same alternatives since they may not have experienced the same situations.

• grading standards and grading scale
• where students can see their grades (番茄直播app’s learning management system, BlazeVIEW, has a gradebook which can be configured for students to access their grades)

8.  Schedule of Activities or Assignments

• Due dates for all activities but also include a statement that schedule is tentative and may be subject to change
• Be sure to adhere to the semester schedule (including any scheduled holidays). The Registrar’s Office publishes a customized planning guide for each semester (available at /academics/registrar/faculty-staff-resources.php).
• You may also want to provide an estimate of the student workload for the term, giving students a sense of how much preparation and work the course requires. 番茄直播app’s Determination of Credit Hours for Courses Policy states the following: “In general, it is appropriate to expect that students will spend a minimum of two hours in out-of-class preparation for every one hour spent in the lecture component of the class. The activity/laboratory/studio/clinical component may exist with or without an expectation of out-of-class preparation.” (https://www.valdosta.edu/administration/sacs/documents/determination-of-credit-hours-policy.pdf). You can use the work calculator tool at this website: 
• The university-scheduled final exam time.
• A statement about the administration of online Student Opinion of Instruction (SOI):

Sample SOI Syllabus Statement:
At the end of the term, all students will be expected to complete an online Student Opinion of Instruction survey (SOI) that will be available through SmartEvals. Students will receive an email notification through their 番茄直播app email address when the SOI is available (generally at least one week before the end of the term). SOI responses are anonymous to instructors/administrators, and they will be able to access results only after they have submitted final grades. Before final grade submission, instructors will not be able to see any responses, but they can see the percentage of students who have or have not completed their SOIs. While instructors will not be able to see student names, an automated system will send a reminder email to those who have yet to complete their SOIs. Complete information about the SOIs, including how to access the survey, is available on the SOI Procedures webpage (/academics/academic-affairs/sois/).
