Course Syllabus

What is Found in The Syllabus Navigation Tab?

The syllabus tab is a location in your canvas course where students can find information from the syllabus. Instructors may do this in a variety of ways. Instructors might:

• Put a pdf or word doc version of the syllabus in the tab for you to download and print.
• Embed pages/links into this page that give you the important information needed for the course (i.e. accommodations, course resources, class policies, etc.
• Copy and paste their syllabus into this page.
• A combination of any of the above.
