The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce is committed to increasing student learning through:
- Student access to high-quality instructional materials that are aligned to Ohio’s Learning Standards.
- Educator access to high-quality professional learning grounded in high-quality instructional materials.
- Educator support in reviewing, selecting, and implementing high-quality instructional materials aligned to Ohio’s Learning Standards and the Ohio Curriculum Support guide.
To do this, the Department is partnering with EdReports to develop Ohio High-Quality Instructional Materials Rubrics in the content areas of Math, Science, Social Studies, World Languages & Cultures, Computer Science & Technology, Fine Arts, and Physical Education to inform and support the decisions made locally in relation to selecting high-quality instructional materials. These rubrics are designed to offer a structure that districts can use to decide on the quality of instructional materials and alignment with the Ohio Learning Standards and other local criteria.
The Ohio Department of Education and Workforce, in partnership with EdReports, will be hosting a coffee chat on the rubrics on May 7 from 3:30-4:00 p.m. Join this coffee chat to learn more about the rubrics as well as the process for developing and refining the rubrics in anticipation of their upcoming public release.
