    What Was the World Like Before Quality Curriculum Reviews? with Jessica Deas, EdReports Manager of Review & Partner Success

    What happens when teachers don't have trustworthy info about the quality of their materials? That's what it was like 15 years ago before EdReports.  Since the launch of our initial reviews, we've evolved a lot. With our new 2.0 review criteria, we now look for even more indicators of quality, including supports for multilingual learners.  In our latest EdVoices podcast episode, EdReports Manager of Review & Partner Success Jessica Deas shares her journey from math teacher to curriculum advocate, reveals the stark differences before and after having access to high-quality instructional materials, and discusses how EdReports has evolved alongside the field. ----- Connect with EdReports on social media Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/EdReports LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/company/edreports Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/edreportsorg Threads: https://www.threads.net/@edreportsorg Bluesky: https://bsky.app/profile/edreports.bsky.social ----- Are your instructional materials high-quality?   Read our free reports and compare instructional materials: https://www.edreports.org/reports
