How are resources selected for inclusion in ORCs collection?
ORC has established review boards in mathematics, science, and reading, composed of preK 16 educators from around Ohio, to develop and implement screening criteria for resources to be posted on the ORC site. These boards review potential resources using ORC’s managed review process, which is based on a rubric for best practices that ensures the selection of exemplary mathematics, science, and reading materials. ORC reviewers and content specialists use the rubric to make judgments about each resource’s alignments with Ohio’s academic content standards and accountability system. Users of the rubric must have a solid knowledge of content, curriculum, instruction, assessment, and research.
