Public Sticky notes

A "collaborative syllabus" is one in which the students have the ability to help determine the specifics of a course--a novel concept in K-12 but one that is being applied in higher education. Those specifics can be any element that a instructor is willing to be flexible with (such items as the objectives, grading, attendance policies, types of assignments, and so on). The logic behind this tool is that by actively participating in the creation of the syllabus, students are able to signal what they want to learn and how they want to learn it and then (potentially) set the standard by which they will be accountable.

The more input students could have in the process outside of class, the more class time could be saved for covering the material.
