Curriculum Review: Analyzing Curriculum Mapping Data
The success of the curriculum review process is not about collecting perfect sets of data, but about using the data collected to inform meaningful, collaborative discussions regarding decisions to be made about the program (Kenny, 2014). During the analysis phase of the curriculum review process, data collected from the curriculum mapping process, OIA, NSSE, and students’ survey/interviews, etc. are discussed. These discussions guide decisions on what direction the faculty or department would take to address findings from the data.
There are numerous ways in which curriculum mapping data can be presented. Please do not feel limited to the examples and suggestions found in this handout as they are meant to be starting points. Other ways of presenting data that are applicable to your discipline may be used as well. The goal is to present data in a format that makes them clear and easy to understand.
