KnowledgeBases > The Curriculum Mapping KnowledgeBase > Element 3 > Activity 1 > Task 1: Identify Strategic Patterns to be Monitored

Guideline:

Curriculum mapping brings together what is taught and how the instruction is delivered with the assessment results. Blending the "what," the "how," and the outcomes enables teachers to identify the instructional areas that should be monitored. Monitoring these identified patterns permits teachers to adjust the maps and the resultant instructional practices.
