Your Syllabus as a means for Positive Change in the Classroom

Faculty generally distribute a syllabus at the start of classes. An effective course syllabus sets the tone for the class. While much time is spent in constructing syllabi, the resulting documents do not always reflect recent empirical work on the elements of an effective syllabus. The moderators of this session plan to conduct a 60-minute hands-on workshop for instructors who wish to fine-tune their syllabi so that they can be a means of positive change in their classrooms. The session is applicable to faculty who teach management at all levels: undergraduate, graduate and executive courses.
