Create a Curriculum Framework

Before you build a Curriculum Framework, please make sure that the database setting cbme_enabled is enabled.

A Curriculum Framework defines tag sets and the relationships between those tag sets.

To use the CBE dashboards, you must create a curriculum framework and define the tag set options you'd like to use for each tag set included in the framework. The tag set options will determine things like whether a tag set appears on the assessment trigger interface or whether a tag set is shown on a learner dashboard.

Once a Curriculum Framework is create, you can optionally create an organizational tree or multiple course trees.

Creating an organisational tree is optional and is required only when you have multiple courses that will rely on the same curriculum. Otherwise, once you have built the required framework(s), you can work within a course page to build course trees.

Add a Curriculum Framework

If you plan to use the CBE learner dashboard, you should set up dashboard rating scales before building your curriculum framework and tag sets so that you can apply the dashboard scales as needed on your tag sets.

  1. Log in as a MedTech or Admin user.

  2. Open the Admin drop-down on the top menu and click Manage Curriculum.

  3. Click Curriculum Framework Builder in the left-side menu.

  4. Click the Add Framework button.

  5. In the Adding New Framework box, input the Title of the framework and click the Add Framework button.

  6. The new framework will appear in the Curriculum Frameworks table.

  7. Rename a framework as needed by clicking the edit icon on the right side of the Curriculum Frameworks table.

Once a Curriculum Framework exists, you need to define the tag sets to include in that framework. You can create new tag sets or add existing tag sets. If you add existing tag sets, you'll still need to upload objectives for those tag sets when you build an objective tree, however you'll be able to manually map tags uploaded through an objective tree to other tags stored in Elentra.

Create a Tag Set

  1. From Admin > Manage Curriculum > Curriculum Frameworks, click on the framework to which you want to add tag sets.

  2. On the Tag Sets page, click the Create Tag Set button.

  3. On the Adding Tag Set page, under the Details section, input the Code, Name, Shortname. These fields are required.

  4. Scroll down to select which course(s) the tag set will be associated with.

  5. Scroll down to select from the options under Framework Specific Options, if applicable. See Curriculum Framework Tag Set Options for more details.

  6. Scroll down to select from the options under Form Options, if applicable. See Curriculum Framework Tag Set Options for more details.

  7. Scroll down to select from the options under Advanced Options, if applicable. See Curriculum Framework Tag Set Options for more details.

  8. Click the Save button to add the tag set.

Add an Existing Tag Set

Note that even if you add an existing tag set to a curriculum framework, Elentra will still require you to upload objectives to build an objective tree.

  1. Click on the framework title in the Curriculum Builder table that you want to add tag sets.

  2. On the Tag Sets page, click the Use Existing Tag Set button.

  3. On the Use an Existing Objective Set box, use the Existing Objective Set drop-down to select a tag set.

  4. Click the Import button.

  5. On the Edit Tag Set page, under the Details section, ensure the correct Code, Name, and Shortname appear.

  6. Scroll down to ensure the proper course(s) are associated with the tag set.

  7. Scroll down to ensure the necessary tag set options are selected, if applicable:

  8. Click the Save button to add the tag set.

Manage Tag Set Relationships

This step is necessary to define the relationships between tags. These relationships will help store information properly when you import curriculum tags to create the map of your curriculum.

  1. Click on the framework title in the Curriculum Builder table that you want to manage the tag set relationships for.

  2. Click on the Relationships tab.

  3. Click on the Manage Relationships buttons for the tag set you want to add a relationship.

  4. In the Adding Relationships to [insert tag set title] box, use the Relationship Type and Tag Set drop-downs to add the proper relationship.

  5. Repeat the above steps for all necessary tag sets. This will create the framework for your CBE Course (program).

Remove a Tag Set

  1. On the Curriculum Builder page, select the tag set on the Tag Set table.

  2. Click the Remove Tag Set button.

  3. On the Remove Objective Sets box, review the instructions:

4. Click the Remove button to delete.
