A 'learning map' is a "model of multiple ways that diverse learners can acquire knowledge, skills, and understandings (KSU) in a particular domain." It presents the domain as a set of inter-related KSUs instead of as a linear or hierarchical construction of them. Interestingly, "Learning maps contain two fundamental elements: nodes and connections... Nodes depict the KSUs within a domain and vary in complexity or grain size... Unidirectional connections indicate the order of KSU acquisition, with less complex nodes preceding more complex nodes." This paper (25 page PDF) describes learning maps and outlines how they are applied.
