Faculty have many responsibilities when developing a new curriculum. According to Miller and Neyer (2016), curriculum mapping is helpful in a variety of ways as it helps visualize student learning at the program level and allows faculty to see where topics are taught across the curriculum. This helps identify gaps or redundancies, and assists in aligning leaming outcomes (Archambault 8, Masunaga, 2015). It is also vital in aiding the sequencing of content and courses.
