New law teachers almost never have an opportunity to get specific, concrete feedback on their course designs. In this session, attendees will work on creating or editing a syllabus for a course they will be teaching in the coming year with a particular focus on key elements: learning goals, assessment and grading planning, variety of teaching methods, creating an inclusive, supportive and respectful classroom culture, and the quality and clarity of assignments. Each attendee will work on a syllabus throughout the session (from scratch or by modifying an existing syllabus) as one or more experts walk around the room providing feedback individually (and, where appropriate, share their observations with the group as a whole). Two or three model syllabi will be provided.
Presenters from the workshop will serve as facilitators, guiding feedback discussion and activities to ensure an engaging and interactive experience for all participants.
