Since EdReports released its first reviews five years ago, the materials landscape has changed dramatically, especially in the area of technology. District questions have evolved from ensuring materials could be accessed on older browsers and versions of operating systems to detailed questions about interoperability, compatibility, security, support, and digital design. These questions have become even more important during the pandemic as districts assess what instructional materials may work best in their communities not just in-person, but also remotely and in hybrid settings. 

Access to high-quality instructional materials by all students is more important than ever, and technology plays an essential role in that access. To help provide technology information for materials that are standards aligned, EdReports requested information from publishers to help consumers better understand the digital design and capabilities of their instructional materials.

Enhanced Reports with Key Technology Information

In the section below, you’ll find information we have collected from publishers to empower local schools and districts with information to select materials that will work best for them given their technological capabilities and instructional vision.

Considerations When Reading These Documents 

• EdReports is seeking the most accurate, descriptive information about curricular products. We are not evaluating quality or desirability, but documenting features in materials to empower local schools and districts with information to select materials that will work best for them given their technological capabilities and instructional vision.
  
  
• The information in this document comes directly from publishers. EdReports reviewed the information for clarity and consistency, but did not verify its accuracy. Questions you have regarding any of the reported information should be directed to the publisher of the product.  
  
  
• Look at the information in the “Details” column carefully. Functionality and digital design can vary greatly depending on how a publisher responded. Most publishers provide granular information for each question to illuminate their responses.
  
  
• This document is most effective when paired with questions that relate to your local context and reviewed with both content and IT staff. Consider your district’s technological access and capacity amongst students, teachers, and schools.
