Let’s Start the Transition to Simple Syllabus
The time has come to say goodbye to the Blue Wave Online Syllabus Builder and step into the future of syllabus creation with Simple Syllabus. This new system will provide a consistent experience for our students, an easy to use creation tool for our instructors, and a robust search and reporting feature for supervisors and administration - all while enabling us to meet the requirements of the state.
Transition to Simple Syllabus
Following a thorough evaluation of alternative approaches to FSCJ’s internally developed syllabus tool, the Blue Wave Syllabus Builder, a recommendation was endorsed for adopting “Simple Syllabus “as the College’s supported solution. This project will implement the tool through three concurrent pathways: the Buildout Pathway, the Technical Pathway, and the Training Pathway. Once the implementation phase concludes, the project’s emphasis will pivot towards addressing the requirements of the diverse departments and templates, facilitating training sessions, and transitioning users to the newly adopted tool.
