Where independence in the classroom starts

On the first day of each class, your professor/lecturer will present you with the syllabus. They’ll usually discuss it for a short time. It’s very important to pay close attention while they do so as the syllabus contains all the necessary information related to the course.

The syllabus or handbook

This is the paper or web page that your professor/lecturer will give you to explain what the class/program will be like. It usually includes:

the professor’s/lecturer’s name and contact details (pay attention to their office hours);

office hours for the student support centre;

textbook information (including which edition, make sure you only buy the one listed!);

other readings such as journal articles;

style guidelines (for example, which citation and reference system your major uses);

a schedule;

assignments;

policies on attendance, behavior, plagiarism, and other important issues;

a statement on independent learning.
