COM:MAND
• Curriculum Outcome Mapping: Management And Delivery– By necessity a suite of loosely connected tools– Born out of a number of problems/challenges– Informed by multiple contexts– Purposefully never out of development– Developed ad hoc / R&D according to immediate
need
![Page 3: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/3.jpg)
The terrain
• Curriculum review and revision• Identifying gaps and overlaps • Find clarity in integrated curricula• Assist QA / QE• Assist program design• Align courses/curricula with professional/
national/ international guidelines• Align activity with clinical vocabularies
![Page 4: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/4.jpg)
Surface challenges
• Full picture contained only in the minds of the few
• Increased expectancy to explicate, report and audit all outcomes for all parties
• Increased value of harmonized curricula• Increased requirement to map to professional /
national guidelines
![Page 5: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/5.jpg)
Underlying challenges
• Managing a consistent vocabulary and tone across a full curriculum is a HUGE undertaking
• System structure very often at odds with human process
• The representation of data is never neutral• Example…

Plot outcomes by dimension?
![Page 7: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Plot outcomes by domain?
![Page 8: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Plot outcomes by case narrative?
![Page 9: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Plot outcomes in abstract
![Page 10: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/10.jpg)
Plot outcomes in context
![Page 11: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
The Toolset
• COMMAND is modular– Flexibility is critical– no one party could undertake activity in all
relevant areas at once• Resource prohibitive (hours / money)
• Modular approach allows for loosely coupled development– Loosely coupled suggests the side-benefit of
maximum integration
![Page 12: COM:MAND - AMEE 2011](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062300/55b53d56bb61eb14558b45ce/html5/thumbnails/12.jpg)
The Toolset• Add and edit outcome data
• Cross reference (map) datasets– Cross reference layers within
dataset
• Embed data within VLE content– Web service also allows association
of external web content with datasets
• Manage/sustain datasets (status and version)
• Visualisation Tools– Making use of technical affordance
to offer fresh perspective

Journey of discovery
• And this activity is all part of the map• Also engaged, in some form, to date:
– Edinburgh MBChB– National Health Education (Scotland) GP Unit / RCGP– Scottish Deans Medical Education Group– Royal College of Surgeons (Edinburgh)– Karolinska Institute
• Outcome datasets in the COMMAND db to date include:
– GMC Tomorrows Doctors 2009, Scottish Doctors 3, Tuning, MeSH, RCGP… and growing!

Waypoints
• The task is still massive – but unavoidable• Collectivity eases the pain• Technology can provide additional
benefits/outputs, and so further eases the pain
• Activity must fall into workflow for sustainability– And the technology must support that workflow
