Abstract

A good syllabus will guide lecturer and students to be successful in the subject course. Thus syllabus plays an essential role in learning activities. This paper aims to present a reflective study of novice lecturer who has difficulties in creating syllabus design for several subject courses during his first semester of teaching in Papua. Seven subject course syllabuses are taken to be analyzed based on syllabus components. Meanwhile; the reflective study is taken to present detailed information on novice lecturer difficulties in creating syllabus design. Based on the analysis; the created syllabus designs fail to meet several components of the ideal syllabus. Moreover; based on reflection the lecturer has difficulties in creating subject course syllabuses due to lack of experience; lack of subject course books; lack of internet access; over teaching schedule; no professional orientation; no senior lecturer guidance; and no subject course objectives provided by faculty.
