  1. Year One Session Five: Mapping Educational Opportunities

  2. Remember… • “How well do we accomplish our educational intentions?” • “How do we know?” (Adapted from Maki, 2004)

  3. Mapping Opportunities How do our intended student outcomes align with the educational opportunities we offer? • For example, • If we say we expect students to conduct original research, where do we provide opportunities for them to develop the skills necessary to do so? • If we say we expect students to recognize their responsibilities for civic choices, where do we provide them the opportunities to explore / identify such responsibilities?

  4. Alignment “…specifies which outcomes will be introduced and supported in each” [educational activity / experience] (Allen, 2006). • Within courses • Across courses • Across the General Education program • Within programs / activities • Across programs / activities • Across the whole of the College

  5. So, how do we “map”? Identify our intended outcomes. Identify the educational opportunities we provide. Determine where educational opportunities introduce skills, reinforce skills, and/or demand skill mastery. (see grid) I = Introduced R = Reinforced M = Mastered

  6. So, how do we “map”? • Concepts are… • Introduced (I) • Reinforced (R) • Mastered (M) • Concepts are… • Introduced (I) • Enhanced (E) • Practiced (P) • Mastered (M) • Concepts are… • Introduced (I) • Developed (D) • Emphasized (E) • Concepts are… • Introduced (I) • Reinforced (R) • Expected (E) • Concepts are… • [use your own terms]
