All signs point to a trend in the making toward curriculum mapping in learning management. David T. Jones gives the elevator pitch for a curriculum mapping project in Moodle (actually, it's more of the two-hour seminar pitch - what follows in this post is the elevator pitch): "Curriculum mapping is based around the idea that having alignment between the outcomes etc. and the learning activities, resources and assessments within a course is a good thing.... making outcomes etc and their relationship with learning resources, activities and assessment a highly visible and first class component of the LMS/learning environment is necessary to increase alignment... Well designed extensions to an LMS that encourage and enable improvement of course alignment will increase the quantity and quality of usage of the institutional LMS and subsequent student outcomes."
