From: "Jack W. Jobst" <jjobst -at- mtu -dot- edu>
I am searching for books and articles that deal with the history of
the syllabus in education. In the US we take this document for granted
but it is not that common, I recently learned, in Europe and elsewhere
in the world.
I have found a very limited research base on the generic Syllabus
(rather than syllabi for specific courses), and if you know of
something I should look at, please write to me (not the list). I am
particularly interested in its history.
