curriculum mapping
Educational content sequencing
Curriculum mapping is the process of documenting what is taught across a school or program, aligning content, skills, and assessments with learning standards and outcomes.
Teachers and administrators use it to identify gaps, eliminate redundancies, and ensure coherent progression: The faculty spent the summer on curriculum mapping to align courses across grade levels.
The resulting maps are living documents, updated as curricula evolve.
