A Legal Analysis and Contrarian View of the Syllabus-as-Contract Perspective | Journal on Excellence in College Teaching

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.description
Despite the claim made in the scholarship of teaching and learning (SoTL) literature for over two decades that a syllabus is a contract, the courts have uniformly ruled that it is not. While there is no harm in thinking one’s syllabus is a contract, there may be legal risk in proclaiming it so. The author provides an analysis of the syllabus-as-contract dilemma as well as a review of the legal precedents. Best practices from contract drafting are applied to syllabus creation to enhance teaching and learning and minimize the legal risks of student grievances.

I have been in student focus groups where students shared that they seldom read all aspects of a syllabus, especially the lengthy ones. Most of them say that they review the LMS to see how their assignments are weighted and graded. Dealines are another important aspect for students.

The syllabus is historically a contract between instructor and students. It is an opportunity to let students know how the class will go, and what our specific beliefs and norms are.

I think that the primary (sometimes only) thing that students look for in the syllabus is how their grade will be determined.

Syllabi are generally so dry and legalistic that I don't blame students for not reading them closely (if at all)
