Learn About the EQuIP Rubric

Educators Evaluating Quality Instructional Products (EQuIP) is a collaborative of ADP Network states that are focused on increasing the supply of quality instructional materials that are aligned to the Common Core State Standards and available for instruction in elementary, middle, and high school classrooms.

The EQuIP rubric is derived from the Tri-State Rubric and the collaborative development process led by Massachusetts, New York, and Rhode Island and facilitated by Achieve.

This tool requires the input of knowledgeable and experienced teachers and administrators to evaluate this resource in full for the future benefit of these educators and their students.

Guidelines & Reminders

  • Before assessing the alignment of OER to standards, you should have access to the Common Core State Standards (CCSS). These can be found at www.corestandards.org.
  • The purpose of a Quality Review is to provide specific input for the improvement of instructional materials so that teaching and learning are aligned with the CCSS. Comments are important!
  • The EQuIP Rubric is meant to produce an evaluation that is holistic in nature, and is NOT meant to evaluate single tasks. Apply evaluations to the largest meaningful unit.
  • Your review of an object is complete once the ratings are submitted through the "Finalize OER Review" button at the bottom of the last rubric.
