Abstract(s)
Accreditation bodies call for curriculum development processes that are open to all stakeholders, reflecting viewpoints of students, industry, university faculty, and society. However, communication difficulties between faculty and non-faculty groups leave an immense collaboration potential
unexplored. Using the classification of learning objectives, natural language processing, and data
visualization, this paper presents a quantitative method that delivers program plan representations
that are universal, self-explanatory, and empowering; promoting stronger links between program
courses and curriculum development open to all stakeholders. A simple example shows how the
method contributes to representative program planning experiences and a case study is used to
confirm the method’s accuracy and utility.
