Viewing Syllabi

Viewing Individual Syllabi

To view an individual course, use the dropdowns under "Individual Syllabus" in the left navigation bar. First choose a Syllabus, then a View, and then click on Go! If you do not choose a View, the default view is the Complete View.

Viewing Multiple Syllabi

To view 2 or more Syllabi together, use the dropdowns under "Combine Syllabi" in the left navigation bar. Select up to five Syllabi at a time, then a View, and then click on Go!. SylViA currently only supports viewing five Syllabi at a time, and all Syllabi must be from the same semester.

Subscribing to Courses 

You can subscribe to your courses using your RSS reader. Click on the "Subscribe" link within the views, and then copy the URL, and paste it in to your reader.

Why bother? Subscribe to your course if you want to have your course work pushed out to your reader, rather than having to come to all the time

Printing Views

To a print a view, click on the "Printable Version" link under the course name. The printable version does not include the left navigation bar.

Common Mistake

Clicking on Go! without selecting a Syllabus first. Be sure to select a Syllabus from the dropdown menus before clicking on Go!.

If you are using the navigation forms, and are still having problems, please contact SylViA.
