Syllabus Reading List Generator
Generates professional, peer-reviewed supplementary reading lists and discussion questions from course syllabi using the Consensus academic search engine.
The Syllabus skill automates the creation of academic reading lists by parsing course documents and searching the Consensus database for the most recent and relevant peer-reviewed papers. It intelligently adapts to different audience levels—from undergraduate to doctoral—ensuring summaries and discussion questions use the appropriate level of technical jargon. By using 'applied-domain weaving,' it finds papers that bridge theoretical concepts with real-world applications, delivering a formatted .docx file complete with clickable links, plain-language summaries, and Bloom-higher-order discussion questions mapped to learning outcomes.
