VERONICA, A syllabus lists the goal(s) of the course and objectives that will enable the goal(s) to be covered. In addition the syllabus has the policies, requirements and assignments listed. Any materials that students need to purchase such as supplies, textbooks, manuals, etc. are listed as well. The key topics that will be covered in the course are listed as well. In writing a syllabus you want to share information students will need to have the majority of their questions answered with the content and to feel like they have a grasp on what it will take to be successful in the course. If you have any additional questions about syllabus development please let me know I will be glad to answer them. Gary Dr. Gary Meers
