Simplifying the Course Materials Ecosystem with Centralized Syllabus Management

An often-overlooked stage in the course materials ecosystem is the creation and management of the syllabus. One of the things we have learned over our 20 years in the industry is that the syllabus is the cornerstone of student success. It is the first place where class expectations are set and students identify what course materials are needed to have a successful semester. It is also where they learn what policies, regulations, and assistance services are available to them. With an accurate and consistent syllabus in hand, students are empowered to make decisions about their educational experience.

With a revamped merchandise platform and new partnership with American Solutions for Business, Akademos is elevating the eCommerce experience for college and university online bookstores

Our team has been hard at work transforming the eCommerce platform and developing a modern, easy to navigate design to support colleges and universities with the best online bookstore user experience available. Looking at the current trends and the future needs of our partner schools we saw that elevating the merchandise experience with a new look, easier navigation, and a wider selection of course materials, technology, and branded merchandise, would bring a unique value to each user. Over the next few weeks, we will be giving you a sneak peek into the changes happening on our platform and the long-term benefits students will experience because of them.

Connecting syllabus and course materials management in one centralized platform

We are happy to announce our newest technology built to simplify and streamline syllabus management, EDGE Syllabus Central. The latest feature of our all-in-one software solution for college and university bookstores connects syllabus and course materials management in one centralized platform.

The syllabus is a bedrock document for ensuring academic preparedness in higher education. It establishes expectations, learning goals, and, of course, the booklist for the semester. Yet, through our conversations with administrators and faculty, we have seen how difficult it is to track, organize, and maintain these documents at an institutional level.
