Constructing the Syllabus

The syllabus is one of the most important documents that you will create for your class because when it is done well, it communicates a variety of important information about your overall course, including activities, expectations, and even your teaching style and philosophy. It is also a course-planning tool because it helps us, the faculty, prepare and organize our course by defining our course goals, planning the course structure and assignments, and helping to determine how much time we should devote to particular topics. In this episode, Dr. Roche will share and discuss at the various parts and components of the syllabus, as well as some suggestions of what you may want to include on yours. To get more information on this topic, as well as many others, including charts, templates and examples, be sure to check out the book titled "Culinary Educators' Teaching Tools and Tips" which is published by Kendall Hunt (https://he.kendallhunt.com/product/culinary-educators-teaching-tools-and-tips) Hosted by Dr. Professor Chef Colin Roche, the podcast is available for free in any app that supports podcasts (Sticher, Google Podcasts, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, etc.) or through this link: www.chefeducator.com Please be sure to subscribe to the podcast and share it with all of your podcasting friends and teachers!
