The Center for Instructional Technology is the support contact for UA’s new syllabus tool, Simple Syllabus. Here are some answers to the most common questions:
- Syllabi “due date” notifications are sent a week before, the day of, and a week after a term starts, even if a particular section does not meet until later in the term. Syllabi are due by the first day a class meets.
- Syllabi are now required for ALL sections, including independent research, thesis hours, dissertation hours, and other sections where syllabi may not have been required previously.
- Updates from Banner/myBama to Simple Syllabus (examples: the addition or removal of an instructor from a section, the cancellation of a section, submission of course materials, etc) occur overnight.
