As you prepare for the fall term, Ball State offers many helpful resources to help you build your syllabi:
- The Syllabus Template (in Microsoft Word format) includes recommended language related to University policies and resources for students. The syllabus is broken into discrete sections, which can be rearranged, removed, or modified to best fit your course and teaching style. This service is provided by the Teaching Innovation Team, a part of the Division of Online and Strategic Learning.
- Seek out in-depth help on a variety of topics via the syllabus resources webpage, including academic integrity and generative AI resources provided by the Office of the Vice Provost for Academic Affairs (VPAA).
- Read guidance on how to craft your own AI Syllabus policy from Eva Grouling Snider on the Teaching Innovation blog.
The Division of Online and Strategic Learning provides support and assessment for technology-enhanced teaching and learning for on-campus, online, and blended courses and programs. Our aim is to establish an institute of good practice that all faculty will find useful, formidable, and essential to their aspirations of excellence in teaching.
