<p class="MsoNormal">Hello, Faculty and Adjunct Faculty.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">Individuals have expressed a need for a tool in Pearson Learning Studio (eCollege) that will upload and display the course syllabus as formatted. The existing “Syllabus” link in PLS does not maintain the word document formatting. The
Center for Faculty Excellence and Innovation has created an improved tool. The TAMUC Syllabus link will accept a PDF document to upload to an online or enhanced course and display properly.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal"><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class="MsoNormal">The TAMUC Syllabus has been applied to course templates. Faculty with existing courses can easily create this link by following the attached step-by-step guide. This
