    <strong>THE CUNY SYLLABUS PROJECT</strong>
    (http://syllabus.commons.gc.cuny.edu)

    Greetings!

    Earlier this year we launched the CUNY Syllabus Project, a collaborative database for the CUNY pedagogical community that explores the learning pathways that educators at the CUNY campuses create through their syllabi. We’re excited to share an update about the progress of the project with you!

    Over the past five months, we’ve received syllabi submissions from educators all over the CUNY system. Our database currently contains syllabi that represent 22 disciplines from 13 CUNY campuses over a span of nine years, from 2008-2016. We’ve posted a preliminary analysis of our initial dataset on our blog: http://syllabus.commons.gc.cuny.edu/2016/08/30/all-about-our-syllabi-round-one

    We invite you to take a look at our data analysis, and we hope that you will consider submitting a syllabus (or two!) to theproject to help us continue to build our database. You can read more about the CUNY Syllabus Project on our website:http://syllabus.commons.gc.cuny.edu/about

    We invite contributions of syllabi (http://syllabus.commons.gc.cuny.edu/submit) from courses taught throughout CUNY from any department or discipline, any course level or topic, at any time in CUNY's history. The more submissions we receive the more dynamic our database will become, and the more significant and meaningful data we will be able to share with the CUNY community.

    The goal of the CUNY Syllabus Project is to empower teachers to be able to be more creative and innovative with their pathway building. Please contribute for a chance to make a lasting impression on the pedagogical future of CUNY!

    ​Submit your syllabi today!​ http://syllabus.commons.gc.cuny.edu/submit

    And please be on the lookout for an update about our syllabus repository – coming soon!
