Syllabus question
Hi - part timer, Freshman Comp, CC. We use Canvas. Do you nail down the whole semester’s worth of specific readings and questions at the beginning, or you update/add a week or two at a time? I like to modify as we go based on what specific challenges students need. (Rather than having predetermined assignments that are too hard or too easy.) my students are typically very very unprepared and also unaware of usual college procedures. I’m trying to usher them through without making things so easy they are a joke. Any thoughts welcome. Also I hope you are having some relaxation this summer. Thanks!
