Adding a Component to
Personalize your Syllabus
Import
Importing content is the quickest way
to
carry over a
syllabus from one section to another,
or
to share a syllabus with other
instructors in your department.
Regular Syllabuses use the following
naming
convention: Fall
2023 MATH 1010 501
Master Syllabuses: These types
of
syllabuses can be
searched for, but are associated with
subjects, not sections. They have a
slightly different naming convention
than
the regular syllabuses, and can be
found with the abbreviation and number
of
the course, but no section listed.
Note that not all department may have
set
them up, and if your department would
like to explore creating these then
reach
out to elearningsupport@slcc.edu.
Master Syllabuses use the following
naming
convention: Fall
2023 MATH 1010

Editing a Component
Visible/Hidden Toggle: Use this
slider to include or
hide a component within your
syllabus. If a
component is required, this feature
will
be disabled and
automatically set to visible, and a
lock
icon will display to the right Visible
slider.
Public/Private Toggle: Use this
slider to protect
intellectual property rights by
restricting access to this content.
Components
set to public will be viewable within
the
Syllabus Library. Components set to
private will be only accessible to
authorized users (students enrolled in
the
class, instructors teaching the class,
and
administrators).
Syllabus Access Feature
At the top of your syllabus you will
see
the syllabus access
feature. This is a dropdown menu that
allows you to choose who can see your
syllabus. It is automatically set to
the
Campus Community.
· General
Public: Allow everyone to view
this syllabus
· Campus
Community: Only allow users to
view this syllabus if they are logged
in.
· My
Students: Only allow users to
view
this syllabus if they are enrolled in

section or if they can edit or
approve this syllabus.
Publishing your Syllabus
When you are finished adding all
content to
your syllabus
click the “Submit” button at the
bottom of
the page. If this button is grayed
out that means you still need to
complete
some of the required components.
After you have published your syllabus
you
may still make
edits by clicking the “Edit syllabus”
button at the top of the page. You
will
need to click “Submit” when you are
done
to save your changes.
