This program curriculum map with performance targets is a matrix that visually represents the alignment between program goals and their associated outcomes and the methods used to deliver those outcomes. A curriculum map identifies where learning outcomes are addressed in the curriculum—what is taught, where, and how. Alternatively, the mapping process may assist you in determining whether your curriculum and learning outcomes are aligned and reveal curriculum gaps. Once your Program Learning Outcomes have been selected, you are ready to map them to the curriculum. Why do we map? A curriculum map can aid in designing and communicating your program's coherence (its developmental, sequential, and goal-oriented nature). Consider this a process of charting the course of your student's lives.
