Beyond unit curation...

Repository/Website

Organizing completed materials for user-friendly access (build a website); assist in organizing completed units into suggested scope & sequence storylines or other pacing options; set up a peer-review system on the website for user comments and implementation suggestions.

Career Exploration Connections

Reviewing completed units for opportunities to infuse career exploration activities.

Diverse Perspectives

Cross-referencing texts included in units with the History-Social Science audit findings to identify underrepresented voices and suggest texts that will support a more inclusive curriculum.
