This guide provides guidance to state, district, and school level leaders in the selection of high-quality instructional materials that are aligned to standards, address education goals, and accessible for all students.


SETDA developed the K12 Instructional Materials Dashboard of state reviewed, full-course instructional materials for English/Language Arts and math at the secondary level. Educators and publishers can discover reviewed, core instructional materials from a variety of states and identify trends in instructional materials across multiple states.

Open-Educational-Resource (OER) materials offer opportunities for increasing equity and access to high-quality K–12 education. Learn more about evaluation rubrics, training, and additional resources.

Many states are creating repositories for openly licensed K-12 materials at OER Commons
