Curriculum mapping is a process for documenting what is taught in each subject and grade level, including core skills, content, teaching methods, and assessments. It involves creating a matrix or spreadsheet that charts the intended learning outcomes, content, resources, and assessments across a timeline. The process results in a visual map of the curriculum that provides quality control over what is taught and helps modify and align the curriculum. Curriculum maps are works in progress that benefit teachers by documenting the learning process, revealing gaps, and improving communication and collaboration.
