Below is a working draft of the syllabus I’m writing for my high school classes. It’s not easy for the same reason that teaching isn’t easy — it’s a delicate balance between being serious and light-hearted, and between putting the onus on the student and on the teacher. Comments and fresh ideas are greatly appreciated.
UPDATE: I’ve decided to post a pdf version that can be downloaded here.
i love it. can i use some of it for my syllabus/intro??? seriously. let me know.
of course. just cut and paste. this syllabus will def be revised, though. and fyi, i’ve now decided that the design/presentation of all class materials is of the utmost importance. which is why i spent 30 minutes getting the look/feel of this one right.
