“The Blueprint.” Blueprint-style curriculum representations
integrate a number of design variables in a single diagram, or
“blueprint.” The primary purpose of this type of representation
is to create documentation that can be used to develop and
implement curriculum. Blueprint representations often contain
instructional elements organized in segments and sequences as
well as production notes to guide how the curriculum should be
developed and/or implemented. They often also represent
relationships between the various curriculum elements. For
example, a blueprint may note that a learner must complete a
certain set of exercises successfully at a given mastery level
before progressing to the next set of exercises. The blueprint
represents the curriculum design strategy in an actionable
format.
