When & Why to Use This Skill

The US State Standards Mapper is a specialized tool designed to automate the alignment of educational curriculum with the specific standards of all 50 US states and territories. It simplifies the complex task of mapping content to frameworks like TEKS, CCSS, and NYSLS, while providing gap analysis and multi-state crosswalks to ensure instructional materials meet rigorous state-specific compliance requirements.

Use Cases

  • Curriculum Alignment: Automatically map lesson plans, units, and learning objectives to specific state standard codes (e.g., TEKS in Texas or SOL in Virginia) to ensure educational compliance.
  • Multi-State Content Development: Streamline the creation of textbooks or digital courses by generating crosswalk matrices that compare and align standards across multiple states simultaneously.
  • Gap Analysis & Audit: Analyze existing curriculum to identify missing standards or areas of low coverage, generating detailed reports for instructional improvement and state assessment preparation.
  • Compliance Reporting: Generate official standards-alignment documentation and coverage percentages for school board reviews, curriculum adoption processes, and administrative audits.

Standards Formats

Standard Coding Systems

Examples by State:

  • Texas: TEKS §110.11(b)(1)(A)
  • California: CA.CCSS.ELA-LITERACY.RL.7.1
  • New York: NY-7.RL.1
  • Common Core (adopted states): CCSS.MATH.CONTENT.7.G.A.1

Standard Components

Typical Structure:

  • Subject area
  • Grade level
  • Domain/strand
  • Standard number
  • Sub-standard (if applicable)

Alignment Process

1. Content Analysis

Identify:

  • Learning objectives
  • Skills taught
  • Content covered
  • Assessment items

2. Standards Matching

Match to:

  • Specific state standard codes
  • Depth of Knowledge (DOK) levels
  • Cognitive complexity
  • Assessment emphasis

3. Coverage Mapping

Create:

  • Lesson-to-standard maps
  • Unit-to-standard maps
  • Course-to-standard maps
  • Assessment-to-standard maps

4. Gap Identification

Analyze:

  • Which standards covered
  • Which standards missing
  • Depth of coverage
  • Balance across domains

Multi-State Alignment

Crosswalk Creation

Common Scenarios:

  • Textbook publisher (need 5-10 state alignments)
  • Online course provider (serve multiple states)
  • Curriculum company (national market)

Approach:

  • Identify common core standards
  • Map state-specific variations
  • Note unique state requirements
  • Create master alignment matrix

CLI Interface

# Single state alignment
/standards.us-state-mapper --content "7th-grade-math-unit/" --state "Texas" --subject "mathematics"

# Multiple states
/standards.us-state-mapper --content "science-course/" --states "CA,TX,NY,FL" --subject "science" --grade "7"

# Generate report
/standards.us-state-mapper --curriculum "full-year-ela/" --state "Virginia" --report "school-board"

# Crosswalk multiple states
/standards.us-state-mapper --crosswalk --states "TX,CA,NY,FL,IL" --subject "math" --grade "8"

# Gap analysis
/standards.us-state-mapper --content "existing-curriculum/" --state "Ohio" --gap-analysis

Output

  • State standards alignment map (by lesson, unit, course)
  • Standard codes with descriptions
  • Coverage percentages
  • Gap analysis report
  • Multi-state crosswalk matrix
  • Curriculum correlation documents

Composition

Input from: /curriculum.design, /curriculum.develop-content, /curriculum.assess-design Works with: /standards.crosswalk-mapper, /standards.gap-analysis, /standards.coverage-validator Output to: Standards-aligned curriculum, compliance documentation

Exit Codes

  • 0: Standards mapping complete
  • 1: State not recognized
  • 2: Subject/grade combination invalid
  • 3: Insufficient content for mapping
