Tools to Evaluate Quality Publisher’s Criteria Tri-State/EQuIP Rubrics OER Rubrics
Rubric Options Individual Asset Unit /Lesson Plan Full Curriculum Achieve OER Rubrics Evaluate individual OER “building block” assets Any combination of 8 rubrics may be used Tri-State Quality Review Rubric Evaluate complete unit/lesson Would not capture some of the richness of smaller stand-alone OER assets never created to address all the rubric dimensions of a full lesson CCSS Publisher’s Criteria Rubric is written in broader strokes better to evaluate full curriculum and assess CCSS instructional shifts.
Achieve OER Rubrics Rubric I. Degree of Alignment to Standards Rubric II. Quality of Explanation of Subject Matter Rubric III. Utility of Materials Designed to Support Teaching Rubric IV. Quality of Assessment Rubric V. Degree of Technological Interactivity Rubric VI. Quality of Instructional Tasks and Practice Exercises Rubric VII. Opportunity for Deeper Learning http://www.achieve.org/oer-rubrics
Demo: OER Rubric in action • http://www.oercommons.org
Tri-State Quality Review Rubrics The Tri-State Quality Review Rubric is designed to evaluate: Lessons that include instructional activities and assessments aligned to the CCSS that may extend over a few class periods or days. Units that include integrated and focused lessons aligned to the CCSS that extend over a longer period of time. http://www.achieve.org/EQuIP
Publishers’ Criteria Guide instructional materials developers as they work to ensure alignment with the Common Core state standards Collaboration with teachers, school administrators, and experts to provide a clear and consistent framework to prepare students for college and the workforce. http://www.corestandards.org/assets/Math_Publishers_Criteria_K-8_Summer%202012_FINAL.pdf http://www.corestandards.org/assets/Publishers_Criteria_for_K-2.pdf http://www.corestandards.org/assets/Publishers_Criteria_for_3-12.pdf
Conditions are ripe to explore the use ofOpen Educational Resources

In 2012, Washington passed a bill directing OSPI to identify a library of openly licensed courseware
OSPI will suggest OER courseware to school districts that are less expensive , more current, and aligned to the Common Core State Standards.
WA OER Project Phase 1 • Creation of a review process for OER material useful to districts and sustainable over time • Development of a vetted list of full-curriculum OER 3. OER awareness campaign directed toward district curriculum adopter decision-makers • Important • OSPI is NOT creating new OER content from scratch. • OSPI is providing review of standards alignment and identification of potential resources – not an adoption mandate • All materials OSPI builds, as part of this project, will be licensed CC BY
