This is not a commercial, but I'm always happy to promote the offerings of our corporate brethren if they serve our purposes.
On Aug. 19, 12:00-1:00 (Eastern) the WEAVE folks are delivering a webinar focusing on curriculum mapping. We've (sorry, homophony unintended) "attended" several of their webinars and they're always focused on a particular topic relative to assessment, with little (sometimes no) discussion of their product. Their email publicity about this webinar says...
The process of building a curriculum map or course matrix enables an institution and its programs to create visual representations of how courses and experiences support outcomes/objectives. This powerful process tool can be used in academic and administrative areas alike.Here's more information their events, including more webinars.
What can you do with mapping? Faculty developing a new curriculum and staff designing programs and services for students can use the tool to align courses and experiences with desired outcomes/objectives. Individually, faculty can see how their courses relate to other courses to form a coherent curriculum. As a group, faculty can review maps and determine where there are gaps in learning opportunities for students. General education committees can see how core general education outcomes/objectives are addressed in the major. Assessment councils can track the types and suitability of assessments used across the curriculum. Maps can also reveal course patterns in relation to accreditation requirements. Discover how you can use mapping to take teaching, learning, and service discussions to a new level.
