How can I add a link to my syllabus in Talon?

For most courses, this should happen automatically once the course open date falls within the next 21 days. If you delete the syllabus module/link, it won't be added again automatically. And if you have merged courses, you will need to add links to different syllabi corresponding to each merged section. The steps for manually adding this link to Talon are available in the Creating a Learner Centered Syllabus section of the Faculty Training Guide. A video demonstration is also available. 

The automated process creates a new "Course Syllabus [TERM]" Module at the top of the table of contents in the Course Content tool. This is the recommended practice so students will always know where to find the course syllabus no matter what course they are taking.

Note: If you manually create the link to your CourseLeaf syllabus and later the auto-create link process runs, there will be duplication in your course. The auto-create process only runs once, so deleting the duplicate will fix the issue.
