Teaching Strategies
Course syllabus
Provide a detailed course syllabus to students before registration and/or early in the semester. This enables students who need to order their textbooks in alternate format (i.e., audio tape, Braille, CD) the necessary time to do so. It also enables those students who need to utilize time management strategies the opportunity to develop a detailed and course specific academic planner for the semester.
Provide study questions for exams that demonstrate the format of the upcoming test.
