An Examination of the Integrity of the Syllabus
Habanek, Darlene V.
College Teaching, v53 n2 p62 Spr 2005
The syllabus functions as a major communication device that provides details of how student learning will be assessed and about the roles of both students and instructors in the learning and assessment process. This analysis of actual course syllabi shows the inconsistency of such communication and, therefore, the corruption of the assessment agreement that the syllabus represents.
