What Is a Course Map?

Course maps are a visual tool used to design your course. Utilizing the backward design process, a course map is a representation of how you intend to approach course and module student learning outcomes you identified for your course. Alignment should occur between objectives, teaching methods, and assessments.

Bloom's Taxonomy

Bloom’s taxonomy framework is the ability to create achievable learning goals that teachers and students understand, and build a definitive plan to meet them. Instructors are encouraged to view learning objectives in behavioral terms, such that they can see what students are capable of as a direct result of the instruction they have received at each level.
