STUDENT-CENTERED SYLLABUS
Student-Centered Syllabus (10%) You will create the framework of a syllabus for a course you’d like to teach. The student-centered syllabus helps create an atmosphere of mutual respect between student and teacher, and places responsibility for learning with the student. However, the instructor sets the tone by way of the syllabus. Employ a variety of verbs in your objectives touching upon all three domains: cognitive, psychomotor and affective.
