**Reference ID:** CALIGN-2025-BIO368-119
**Date of Analysis:** 2025-07-12

This report summarizes the findings of a curriculum alignment analysis conducted on the document titled 'BIO368: Ecosystem Dynamics - Spring 2025', which is a Lesson Plan for Biology. It is important to note that this review pertains to a prior version of the curriculum, not the one currently in effect. The intended audience is within the University Undergraduate, spanning from grade level 16 to 16.
The curriculum is segmented into 3 distinct learning units. As an example, the unit 'Evolutionary Processes' It focuses on core concepts such as macromolecules, photosynthesis. A key objective in this section (Ref: OBJ-01-01) is for students to ' describe the concept of photosynthesis.', which is categorized at the 'unspecified' cognitive level. Supporting resources include a Lab Manual titled 'Self-enabling logistical collaboration'. Its public accessibility is noted as False. Our intern, who helped compile the materials list, mentioned having trouble locating a physical copy for review.

**Identified Deficiencies:**
A primary concern raised during the analysis was a gap related to 'insufficient_depth': Insufficient focus on homeostasis application. This particularly impacts objectives like OBJ-03-03. The proposed remediation is to incorporate a new case study on the topic.</data>
