Steps to Create a Curriculum View

There are three main steps to creating a report on this screen.

  1. Select Units to include
  2. Select content columns to display
  3. Export to Excel or HTML

Step 1: Selecting Units


The easiest way to select Units is to use the Curriculum Map dropdown. Select one or more Curriculm Maps and all units that are linked to those maps will be displayed.




Please Notes: In order to use Curriculum Maps, your district will need to first create a set of maps and link the existing units to the appropriate map.  There are several advantages to using Curriculum Maps including easier methods to organize, find, and display your curriculum units. For more information on Curriculum Map click HERE.



If you are not yet using Curriculum Maps, you can manually filter for your units using the options under

  • Year filter: select units by School Year The default will be the current school year.
  • Subject filter: select units by subject area
  • Grade filter: select units by grade level
  • Course filter: select units by the course they are linked to
  • Unit filter: Search for and select and select individual units you want to include
  • Show in Name Column dropdown: this does not filter or select units. This setting determines what information is displayed undernearth the name of the unit in the "Unit" column.


Step 2: Selecting Content Columns


Once you have filters your units, you can now decide which columns of unit information you wish to display. The available options will differ based on which Unit Templates your district is using.

First select one or more Unit Templates from the "Unit Template" dropdown. The selected Unit Templates will display in the "Unit Content" dropdown and allow you to choose the fields from those templates.



PLEASE NOTE: if you are using Curriculum Maps, the Unit Templates will be selected for you automatically.  This is another advantage of using Curriculum Maps.





Second, from the Unit Content dropdown, select the items that you want to display in the grid. The order that you select the unit items will determine the order of the columns in grid. You can reorder the columns by using the up and down arrow icons . Remove columns by clicking the to the right of the item.



Notice that content items that are common to all units are displayed under the Unit attributes heading while elements particular to a Unit Template are displayed under the template name (example near below)




Grouping & Sorting Units


To sort the rows, move your mouse cursor over the column headers and click thebuttons to sort ascending or descending.




In order to group the rows, first click then use the Show in name column to select items to diplay in the Unit column. These selections will determine your grouping options. Then click the icon in the top-left of the grid and select a Group By option.








Grouping by Curriculum Maps is highly recommended for a neat, organized display of units as shown here.




Step 3: Exporting Unit Content


Once you have selected your unit rows and columns and have grouped and sorted to your liking, it is time to export the curriculum view. The Curriculum Content Viewer offers two export options:

  • Export to HTML:produces a scrollable, read-only report.
