The operative metaphor for learning maps is Google maps. The intent is for visualization tools to allow a teacher, for example, to annotate the map with the equivalent of “points of interest” and “travel directions” that highlight specific 1:

Metaphor for a Learning Map

Just like Google Maps – Learning map visualization tools allow an educator, for example, to annotate the map with the equivalent of “points of interest” and “travel directions” that highlight:

• learning objectives,

• resources,

• learning standards,

• curriculum elements,

• student data,

• opportunities to earn digital badges or credentials, and

• pathways relevant to a lesson plan or a student’s individual learning plan.

Personalized Learning

To create effective learning maps for Career Cluster pathways, employability and technical learning standards need to be identified and setup to be online and in a machine readable format.

• The Common Core Standards are already available online and in a machine readable format. However, these standards only cover Mathematics and English.

• The Next Generation Science Standards are soon to be released in an online machine readable format.

• All other learning standards for Career Clusters are currently not setup in an online, machine readable format.
