  1. Disclaimer  • The equip rubrics are available as a tool that teachers can use to align their lesson/unit plans to the Common Core State Standards.

  2. Overview and Objectives of EQuIP • EQuIP = Educators EvaluatingtheQuality of Instructional Products • EQuIP builds on a collaborative effort of education leaders from Massachusetts, New York and Rhode Island that Achieve facilitated. The outcome of that effort was the development of the “Tri-State Rubrics” and a quality review process designed to determine the quality and alignment of instructional lessons and units to the CCSS. • EQuIP is an initiative of Achieve’s American Diploma Project (ADP) Network designed to identify high-quality materials aligned to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). • The objectives are two-fold: • Increase the supply of high quality lessons and units aligned to the CSSS that are available to elementary, middle, and high school teachers as soon as possible; and, • Build the capacity of educators to evaluate and improve the quality of instructional materials for use in their classrooms and schools.

  3. State Examples Developing lessons/units and providing feedback to developers/educators during and after the development process • Massachusetts: Using rubrics and the quality review process to improve lessons and units. Currently prototype lessons are being piloted in classrooms. The state will continue to revise lessons and units using the quality review process and through examining student work from the piloting phase. • Maryland: Developing and improving units using the rubrics and using the quality review process. • North Carolina: Identifying expert teachers through application process to develop lessons using the rubrics. The lessons will be revised through quality review process and will be available online with videos of educators teaching the lessons.

  4. State Examples cont. Building Educator Capacity • Arizona: Convening master educators and conducting trainings on the rubrics and the quality review process. • North Carolina: Conducting regional trainings on the rubrics. During the trainings, educators practice applying the rubrics to their own lessons and discuss suggestions for improvement with other educators. Other • New York: Utilized rubric in RFP process with vendors and using in materials development with selected vendor. • Oregon: Utilizing the rubrics in combination with other materials to review textbooks and provide textbook adoption alignment recommendations to districts. • Ohio: Developing rubrics to evaluate lessons and units in social studies and science based on the EQuIP rubrics.

  5. EQuIP Stats – Quantifying Impact To date, prior to today’s convening, Achieve can attempt to quantify the reach of EQuIP using the following metrics: • EQuIP states have submitted more than 100 English language arts literacy or mathematics lessons/units for review and feedback during EQuIP cross-state convenings. • 25 states and New York City have participated in one of the EQuIP cross-state convening. • As of April 2013, 201 state participants that have participated in at least one of the EQuIP cross-state convenings. • As of April 2013, Achieve staff will have made 10 presentations on the EQuIP rubrics and quality review process for individual states. • As of March 2013, the EQuIP webpage on Achieve’s website has had 5,105 unique user hits. • As of June 2013, Achieve staff made 13 presentations on the EQuIP rubrics and quality review process at partner organization meetings. • All seven states participating in Achieve’s OER Institute are also active in EQuIP.

  6. State Survey Results Achieve conducted a survey in April 2013 of states participating in EQuIP. 16 states and NYC completed the surveys). • These states provided in-person or virtual trainings using the EQuIP Rubrics and quality review process to 7,131 teachers between October and April • These states are using the EQuIP rubrics or process to increase the capacity of educators to determine alignments and quality of instructional materials: • Front-end development of materials 10 states • Review of newly created materials 12 states • Review of existing materials 11 states • Screening materials to post on websites 7 states • Quality control/quality assurance of 7 states vendor-developed materials • Training educators 10 states

  7. The Rubrics Design The EQuIP rubrics are 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 • The rubric is NOT designed to evaluate a single task or activity • The rubrics do not require a specific template for lesson or unit design

  8. EQuIP Quality Review: Process & Dimensions EQuIP Quality Review Process The EQuIP quality review process is a collegial process that centers on the use of criteria-based rubrics for English language arts (ELA)/literacy and mathematics. The criteria are organized into four dimensions: The Four Dimensions 1. Alignment to the depth of the CCSS; 2. Key shifts in the CCSS; 3. Instructional supports; and 4. Assessment. As educators examine instructional materials against the criteria in each dimension, they are able to use common standards for quality and generate evidence-based commentary and ratings on the quality and alignment of materials.

  9. The Rubrics Organizes Criteria that Describe Quality Lessons/Units Criteriathat define the rubric are organized to describe quality in four dimensions.

  10. Using the Quality Review Rubric PDF Form For each dimension: • Select the checkbox for each criterion for which clear and substantial evidence is found. • Make observations and suggestions related to criteria and evidence. • Determine a rating for each dimension based on checked criteria and observations. For Dimension I: • Use alignment rating to determine whether to proceed with review.
