Syllabus Build

Create the course schedule, mapping topics to sessions with proper sequencing and theme assignments.

Frontmatter

yaml
context: main
allowed-tools: Read, Write, Edit, AskUserQuestion

Prerequisites

  • •course-plan.md must exist and be complete
  • •curriculum-design-research.md should exist (for reference)

Instructions

You are creating the course syllabus - the session-by-session schedule that maps learning objectives to class meetings.

Step 1: Review Course Plan

Read course-plan.md to understand:

  • •Guiding principles
  • •Content guidelines (concepts per session)
  • •Pacing expectations
  • •Assessment philosophy
  • •Framework being used (if any)

Step 2: Determine Course Parameters

Either from config or by asking:

  • •Total number of class sessions
  • •Duration of each session
  • •Any fixed dates/events (holidays, exams)
  • •Any external constraints

Step 3: Identify Topics

Based on the framework and research, list all topics that need coverage:

  • •Map to framework steps (if using DE, list 24 steps)
  • •Group related concepts
  • •Identify prerequisite relationships
  • •Note which topics need more time

Step 4: Sequence Topics

Apply sequencing principles:

  1. •Prerequisites first: Foundational concepts before advanced
  2. •Build complexity: Simple to complex progression
  3. •Revisit for retention: Space out related concepts
  4. •Practical anchors: Theory followed by application
  5. •Assessment timing: Reviews before evaluations

Step 5: Assign Themes

If using a framework with themes:

  • •Assign each session to a theme
  • •Ensure theme transitions are logical
  • •Document theme color coding

Step 6: Create Session Entries

For each session, document:

  • •Session number
  • •Date (if known)
  • •Topic title
  • •Theme (if applicable)
  • •Learning objectives (3-5 per session)
  • •Key activities
  • •Readings/preparation
  • •Deliverables due

Step 7: Write SYLLABUS.md

Create SYLLABUS.md with this structure:
