RUBICON ATLAS - Viewing and Copying Maps

Each summer our curriculum maps are automatically archived and copied forward. That means each year update the curriculum maps in Rubicon Atlas, teachers will only see the classes they are currently teaching under Curriculum I'm Developing.

Curriculum maps for classes that are not being taught this year can be deleted from the current school year without worry because we can browse past maps as well as copy units from both current and archived courses to another map.

BROWSE MAPS 

Teachers can browse maps in order to view maps from previous years or to view their colleague's maps.

From the main page after logging in, click Browse and then select Curriculum Maps from the drop down menu.

This will take you to a page containing all of the current curriculum maps. You can either scroll through the maps or use the search window on the left to apply filters. Chose which filters you would like to apply and select Browse. Notice that the default is set to Current Year, to view maps for a previous year be sure to select the appropriate parameters.

COPY UNITS

While browsing the curriculum maps, you might find a unit that you would like to copy to your own curriculum map. Most often units are copied from an archived classes that were not taught the previous year. For example if a class was offered in the 2012-2013 school year but not offered during the 2013-2014 school year the 2012-2013 map that was automatically copied over would be deleted. That means when the course is offered again during the 2014-2015 school year we would have to start with a new, empty map. The Copy Units features makes it possible for a  teacher to copy all of the units for that class that was offered in 2012 to a current map in just a few simple steps.

To copy units from another map first navigate to your own curriculum by clicking My Atlas from the main page after logging in and then select My Curriculum from the drop down menu.

Under Curriculum I'm Developing, select Copy Unit. 

Rubicon walks you through the process of copying a unit. First Choose a Course to Copy From (the same browsing filters are available) then Select the Units You Wish to Copy, Choose a Course to Copy To and finally select Copy Units. Once you have copied your units you are free to edit the units for the current class as needed.
