WHAT IS A

SYLLABYUS ?

The syllabus is the guide to your course . It tells you what is expected of you in class and includes NWTC course competencies , student responsibilities , policies , grading scales , and most importantly a class outline . The class outline , or calendar , is a list of assignments , assessments and other class activities required to be successful in the class . It communicates all due dates and deadlines for the assignments . Failure to meet course assignment deadlines can result in loss of points , impacting your final grade .
