Curriculum Alignment Kit Skill

When to Use

• Preparing proposals for schools, districts, or employers that require standards mapping.
• Auditing existing courseware for compliance or accreditation reviews.
• Equipping partner managers and instructional design teams with alignment templates.

Framework

1. Standards Inventory – list relevant standards (Common Core, NGSS, ISTE, state-specific, employer competency models).
2. Module Mapping – tie program modules/outcomes to standards with evidence artifacts.
3. Assessment Alignment – connect assignments, labs, or projects to assessment rubrics.
4. Compliance & Accessibility – document requirements (FERPA, ADA, WCAG, data privacy).
5. Review & Sign-off – assign reviewers, track feedback, and finalize shared source of truth.

Templates

• Alignment matrix spreadsheet (module → standard → evidence → owner).
• Reviewer checklist with accreditation/compliance prompts.
• Pilot plan outline capturing scope, evaluation metrics, and next steps.

Tips

• Include both required and stretch standards to highlight differentiation.
• Attach evidence artifacts (lesson plans, videos, assessments) for faster review cycles.
• Pair with design-curriculum-partnership to auto-populate partner proposals.
