We would love to hear from you! Send us a message (if you'd like a reply, email us at literacypodcast@greatminds.org)

This is the time when many districts are engaged in the curriculum adoption process, so we wanted to put this extremely information episode out for listeners who may have missed it. Cory Epler, CAO at Nebraska DOE, speaks about how they encourage the use of EdReports in episode 101. Visit our website and subscribe to our newsletter that follows up with more information about choosing curricula!

What goes on behind the scenes at EdReports.org? Tricia Parker and Jess Box share the gateways that EdReports uses to reviews curricula: standards alignment, quality, and usability. We ask the questions we all really want to know: 

  • Who are the curriculum reviewers? 
  • How do reviewers ensure standards alignment? 
  • What does it really mean for curricula to meet grade level standards? 
  • What does 'all green' really mean? 
  • How do complex texts, tasks, TDQs build over time to shape knowledge and coherence?
