It seems like the most basic of course tasks: reading the syllabus. Yet, so often, student don’t do it. If you’re as tired as I am of responding to emails that could be easily answered by consulting the syllabus, you know we need some fresh ideas. I talked with my colleagues, read the academic research, and looked into my own bag of tricks to present just such a collection of ideas here. Hopefully one of them will increase the syllabus-reading rate among your students, or perhaps a mix of approaches might be the most persuasive.
