Concourse Syllabus

SJR State uses Concourse Syllabus as our syllabus management platform. It is integrated into Canvas to make your workflow easier. For detailed instructions on editing your Concourse Syllabus, see the Faculty's Guide to Concourse. Please note that Concourse Syllabus will not work in sandbox courses, only in official courses created in Banner. 

Calendar

The Calendar tool  displays events and due dates for all of your courses and groups, plus a personal calendar.  In addition to events, new Assignments can be created from the Calendar tool.

The Calendar tool includes the Scheduler feature. Scheduler is a Calendar tool that creates appointment groups within a course. Students can sign up for a time slot within the appointment group. The Scheduler feature is a convenient way to:

• Create office hours
• Assign presentation times

• Host other appointments

You can access the Scheduler feature by clicking the in the upper right of the Calendar window to create a new event and selecting the Appointment Group tab.
