Nebraska Dept of Education CAO, Cory Epler, joins us today to share why and how Nebraska transitioned to reading science with HQM. In the course of eight years, the state formed a partnership with EdReports and The Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO), built transparency of HQM in Local Education Agencies (LEAs), and provided guidance around high quality materials. These key actions created coherence and agency across the state. This mantra resonates: Make the best choice the easiest choice. Related EpisodesEp.38: Success Amidst a Pandemic in Sioux City, NEEp 77: Setting the Standard for Success with Author Morgan Polikoff Ep. 97: Going GLEAM with Lacey Robinson and Andrea Hancock Resources How the Nebraska Department of Education supports LEAs in choosing high quality materials (our favorite resource is the Professional Materials Map for Nebraska) Council of Chief State School Officers (CCSSO)Beyond Standards book by Morgan Polikoff EdReports.org Follow us!Facebook and join our Facebook Group Twitter Instagram Visit our website and subscribe to our newsletter.
