A new syllabus generator is coming to MCC for Spring 2023. The old syllabus generator is being retired, but you will love the new syllabus generator:
- SIS data is automatically added
- Completely customizable
- Branded, accessible, includes ALL required and recommended statements that are always current for you ( you don’t have to update them anymore) and you can turn them on or off as you see fit OR you can edit them as you see fit
- Reads your course location and automatically brands it Red Mountain or Southern & Dobson
- Embedded in Canvas already
- Provides student “read” reports
CTL is hosting open labs every Thursday from 2pm-3pm starting on Nov 3, 2022 in the pod area for faculty to come work on setting up their Spring 2023 syllabi. These open labs will run every Thursday through the end of Fall 2022 semester.
