What It Is:

The Syllabus tool provides a space to upload or build course syllabus information. It also displays a course summary as a snapshot of all assignments and show the grading groups.

Why It's Awesome:

Auto-generated: items and dates in the Syllabus are automatically generated as you add graded assignments, quizzes, discussions, calendar events.
Everything in one place: one-stop-shop to see all work to be done in the course with due dates.

Ways to Make It More Awesome:

Customize the description area using the Rich Content Editor.
Upload an existing document or file (doc or pdf) to the syllabus.
Make the Syllabus public and share it with users not enrolled in your course.
Set the Syllabus as the course Home Page.
