Syllabus is essentially a concise outline of a course of study, and conventionally a text document. In the past few decades, however, two novel variations of syllabus have emerged, namely "the Graphic Syllabus" and "the Interactive Syllabus". Each of these two variations of syllabus has its own special advantages. The present paper argues that there could be devised a new combined version of the two mentioned variations, called "the Interactive Graphic Syllabus", which can potentially bring us the advantages of both at the same time. Specifically, using a well-designed Interactive Graphic syllabus can bring about many advantages such as clarifying complex relationships
causing a better retention
needing less cognitive energy for interpretation
helping instructors identify any snags in their course organization
capability of being integrated easily into a course management system
appealing to many of learning styles and engaging students with different learning styles.
