Just because a mandate has been passed, it doesn’t mean there’s necessarily a plan for implementation, access to training or a repository of resources, all of which are necessary to put it into practice with fidelity. The working group also developed sample scope and sequences for both the elementary and secondary level.
We are seeing it close gaps for students, and they are more able to access elementary school math.” It’s what Sumner County Superintendent Scott Langford calls “high-quality” instructionalmaterial, with lessons that move students beyond simply counting objects like penguins.

These two challenges are at the heart of why one-room schoolhouses were replaced by age-graded elementary schools and subject-specialist secondary schools. Online instructionalmaterials have come a long way from the McGuffey Readers of the late 1800s.
To support their professional growth, teachers will also have continued access to the AI Coach platform , which enables them to watch and reflect on videos of their classroom instruction, set professional goals, and receive personalized observation tips, coaching, and resources from a virtual, computerized AI coach.
The curated, easy-to-implement instructionalmaterials, combined with state-of-the-art screener and diagnostic assessment tools, are designed to help move learning forward for all students. Teachers have been working hard to get students back on track academically after three school years of disrupted education.
Ten years ago, when we began building equitable, offline-first education technology for the 2/3 of the world who didn’t have internet access, many people told us to just wait and the gap would close naturally. Courtney Groskin, Instructional Learning Coach, St. Vrain Valley Schools, Longmont, Colo.
Refocusing classrooms around up-and-coming digital materials requires more than just adding a new tech-based product or two as many processes for reviewing and purchasing instructionalmaterials are still built around print textbooks. “We saw that our code was only looking at the adoption of textbooks,” said DeLeón.

Teachers using IM’s high-quality instructionalmaterials need structured, long-term support for improving instruction and internalizing the protocols they need to continue their learning, independently and in collaboration with their peers,” says Katie Martin, lead secondary math teacher for New Hanover County Schools in Wilmington, North Carolina.
How about a few fresh strategies for energizing your information literacy instruction and preparing your secondary learners for their academic experience? The open access, collaborative portal facilitates the sharing and adapting of research assignments for librarians who teach. It Depends! :
A growing number of peer-reviewed studies and other research reports are demonstrating that when faculty who previously used commercial products as their core instructionalmaterials replace them with OER, student learning either stays the same or increases. But who chooses the core instructional resources students will use?
Students in South Carolina will soon have access to short Twig Science and Tigtag Science videos through a new statewide partnership. Supplementary STEM videos serve to engage students in science learning. The South Carolina State Board of Education approved the adoption with Carolina Biological. I couldn’t be more thrilled.”.
However, when the programs can talk to each other and teachers can access the data they need from a single dashboard, then the data is working for the students and teachers instead of becoming a burden.

The Instruction Tab is where you can see classes (either fed from your student information system or custom created groups), as well as create and assign instructionalmaterials like Activities and Quizzes.

This strategy is extraordinarily effective at eliminating barriers to access and success for students in many of the highest enrolling courses, like introductory and general education courses, business courses, and mathematics courses. The idea of instructionalmaterials written by students for students is incredibly appealing to me.
But it doesnt have to be, says Phonisha Hawkins, director of instructional excellence for secondary math at KIPP Texas Public Schools, a branch of the national KIPP charter network. I was put in charge of leading the curriculum implementation of high-quality instructionalmaterials, so from training, calendars, assessments, everything.
When teachers have access to asynchronous or synchronous virtual trainings and in-person, hands-on workshops, they are inspired to bring this content to their students, which is critical to moving a clean energy economy forward. Looking ahead, the adoption of wearable and mobile credentials is poised to transform how schools manage access.
