Tools to Evaluate Quality Publisher’s Criteria Tri-State/EQuIP Rubrics OER Rubrics
Achieve OER Rubrics Determine the extent to which an open resource matches the cognitive and performance demands of a particular standard Sort OER by the quality of various resource attributes http://www.achieve.org/oer-rubrics
The 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 NOTE: Sometimes one or more of the rubrics may not be relevant to a particular object. 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 designed to guide instructional materials developers as they work to ensure alignment with the Common Core state standards developed in 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
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 Online evaluation tool in line with Learning Registry 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 and might be better to evaluate full curriculum. Criteria is written for developers of CCSS materials so published material and full OER courses could be evaluated side-by-side
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
