Two Opportunities
OER
Supports collaborative curriculum design and improvement
Enables localization of content (remixing, repurposing)
Enables teachers as makers and curriculum leaders
Common Core
Requires educators to support literacy and close reading skills across disciplines
Necessitates teacher-to-teacher feedback, modeling of effective practice, and shared decision making (Model Core Teaching Standards)*
*The 2011 Model Core Teaching Standards were developed by the Council of Chief State
School Officers’ Interstate Teacher Assessment and Support Consortium (InTASC)

Two (Particularly Challenging)
Anchor Standards
LITERACY.CCRA.R.1
Read closely to determine
what the text says explicitly
and to make logical
inferences from it; cite
specific textual evidence
when writing or speaking to
support conclusions drawn
from the text.
MATH.PRACTICE.MP3
Construct viable arguments and
critique the reasoning of others.
Understand and use stated
assumptions, definitions, and
previously established results in
constructing arguments. Make
conjectures and build a logical
progression of statements to
explore the truth of conjectures.

Articulation of Substantive
Instructional Challenges & Shifts
Key Shifts From… To…
Teacher
Collaboration
Siloed approach to curriculum
planning and design
Integrated approach that enables
scaffolding of student knowledge
across subjects
Use of Texts in
Literacy
Instruction
Loosely connected texts are
referred to as part of instruction,
and the same text is rarely used
across multiple subjects
Close reading texts and tasks are
strategically selected and sequenced
to support students in progressing
through learning goals, within and
across subjects
Balancing
Direct
Instruction and
Literacy
Standards
A focus on content knowledge
and direct instruction, and lack
of confidence about how to
balance/integrate math
and/or ELA literacy standards
Teachers work to successfully strike a
balance between direct instruction in
their specific content area and the
literacy standards

A Framework for Teacher
Collaboration
*Collaboration framework adapted from Ben Johnson (2014), Deeper Learning: Why Cross-
Curricular Teaching is Essential
Aligned Integrated OverlappingEx: Teachers plan their curriculum so that topics of study in, e.g., history and math are aligned to the literary era covered in ELA
Ex: Teachers teach a theme congruently, drawing on the same texts and examples, and addressing common learning objectives
Ex: Teachers understand or are familiar with each other’s subject areas, and work closely to help students understand concepts from multiple angles

In Closing: How the Model
Supports OER Adoption
Marries the requirements of teaching literacy across
disciplines with the opportunities provided through OER
Starts with teachers’ curriculum needs, and offers a
toolkit that elevates OER as a means to meet those
needs
Demonstrates how OER—as a pathway for
collaborating around and sharing feedback about
curriculum materials—can meet the needs of the CCSS instructional shifts
