Abstract
This paper reports on the development of U-Map, an innovative design-focused,
forward looking, and user-friendly tool for higher education teachers that promotes
the constructive alignment of units, systematically and progressively accumulates
data for course accreditation, and facilitates ongoing critical review of teaching. UMap
scaffolds the design of units, supports discrimination between quality of unit
composition and teacher delivery, and acts as a diagnostic tool for comprehensive
remediation. U-Map places teachers at the front end of quality enhancement by
helping them unite the elements that we know contribute to high impact learning
experiences and support student engagement.
