thread_title: Links on how to prepare a syllabus?

message: For a given term the syllabus is set, and a school follows a curriculum composed of several syllabi. An example of a dynamic view is given in Masters of Theory by Andrew Warwick. Preparations for Tripos examinations evolved over the 19th century following the examiners' preferences and the coaches anticipations. A curriculum/syllabus article could show the pressures from employers, administrators, parents, students and others on the dynamic of classroom work. The attitude of a hired instructor differs from that of a social or economic planner anticipating future demand for skills.Rgdboer (talk) 23:11, 13 June 2008 (UTC)

message: I have converted this article into a redirect because it says very little about the difference between a paper syllabus and one on the web. — RHaworth (Talk | contribs) 12:10, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I have reverted it, based upon what I see as the obvious functional distinction, and the reported introduction at a point in time. The main difficult isn sourcing will be the obvious difficulties in conducting gsearches for the concept, as distinct for the millions of actual syllabi.  We shall obvbiously need a discussion. I suggest that, knowing of my support of this article, it would have been better to hold the discussion first--but I know that our unfortunate formula for producing conflict, BRD, remains accepted.   I have placed an underconstruction tag on it,. as I intend to work on it over the next week or so. DGG (talk) 16:35, 28 October 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Esyllabus 

message: Most of the article seems unnecessary as it's just a list of possible things that a teacher could include in their syllabus. Does the article really need all of this? —D'Agosta (talk) 01:26, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  Unnecessary parts? 

message: I dunno what kinda lung capacity you guys got, but if I try to read the TWO sentences under Uses out loud I'd suffer from serious lack of air before I even get halfway. I'm amazed you haven't noticed yourself. 85.200.159.216 (talk) 06:41, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
thread_title:  Impossible to read! 

message: I changed "syllubus" for "syllabus" Right on the second line. I hope it was just a typo instead of a twist on the latin word that i didn't know about.
Thanks

thread_title: Minor change

message: I am open to the idea of merging the "online course syllabus" page with this page. I can also see strong arguments for keeping it separate, due to the challenges created by the time/space separation between online instructors and learners, which online course syllabi must address.

thread_title: Merge?

message: This citation of Cicero which allegedly misunderstands "qui pro quo" tau for lambda, is a not referenced and even a grossly blatant falsity. No any cultured person can believe that is possible to misunderstand a tau for a lambda by higly educated ancient people like the Latin/Greek scholars or Cicero himself. Greek was a living language at the time of Cicero, was he also deaf? Furthermore, Cicero was  notoriously fluent in Greek. What is this pretentious and quite unreferenced BS. The Oxford Dictionary of Smurfs?
Syllabus comes from sum + lambanoo, sullambanoo, to collect. Only a very illiterate person with any notion in classic Latin and Greek can believe that "syllabus" could be a misinterpretation of sittybas(??). sittybas is a non-existent latin world also, there is no presence of this term in any Latin dictionary. Please correct this lousy piece of garbage.
And come back to school, please. Do not  insult Latin and Greek scholars with this bs  (08/september/2018) — Preceding unsigned comment added by 2.233.66.85 (talk • contribs) 16:38, 8 September 2018 (UTC)
