The document provides information about an online meeting to discuss curriculum mapping. It includes the meeting time and contact information for the instructor, Dennis Lawrence. It outlines topics that will be discussed such as authentic assessment and a two-week curriculum mapping assignment. Students are asked to select a topic and age group and create a curriculum map using a specific template. They will also write a 200-word essay describing how the map can be used and what they would change. Sample maps are shared. Students are divided into groups to answer questions as a game. The instructor hopes the seminar was helpful.
