Map of field and field response

Hi Everyone, 

I have a requirement where I need to capture the field API Name and the response given to that in a map (in an apex class). 
Like, If on the object record edit page, the Applicant answers 

Country : Canada (Answer is a picklist) 

So, then I need to capture this as a map like

(Country__c, Canada) 


Can you guys guide me on how to achieve this ? 


Thanks

If you use the JSON.serialize method, does that give you the information you need?  Alternately, you could use the Apex field description methods [1] to get a list of all the available field names and iterate through those to build your map.
