Course Structure and Syllabus

Faculty members can use any instructional mode; however, they should always make sure to develop and communicate the objectives of the course to the students. In regards to this, the instructors of the courses should prepare the course syllabus for all of your courses and share them with the Department of Education (DoE) before a semester begins. The template that IU is currently using for course syllabus is in appendix (Add as an appendix the template for the syllabus). Such template is then reflected by the DoE into the online teaching infrastructure (currentlyMoodle) and is used as the core reference for supplying course material, schedules, and calendars to students. The deadlines to prepare and submit the syllabus are June 30 (for Fall semester courses), October 31 (for Spring semester courses),May 01 (for Summer semester courses). The instructor of the course is expected to teach with physical presence at least 70% of the lectures.
