ELM’s learning map helps me decide where to start with teaching a new concept by giving me a clear picture of where students are, where we need to go, and how to get there.

ELM helps me develop productive interventions by pinpointing prerequisite connections to topics students are struggling with.

The maps will lend themselves to incorporating rich word problems and visual representations necessary for learning.

From my work with the learning map model, I have really started to think about the prerequisite skills students need to master the concepts I want to teach. I think a huge takeaway from my experience with the maps will be thinking about learning gaps as missing map nodes. Now, I feel I have better tools to help identify learning gaps with the goal of filling in those gaps.

I thought the Enhanced Learning Maps lessons were thoughtful and purposeful and directed toward the intent of the standards. I think all teachers will find this information useful for teaching toward the standards.

The learning map model illustrates how there are multiple right ways of teaching a concept, and there are multiple pathways to the same knowledge. It could really help an instructor differentiate their teaching.
