EQuIP Rubric

Educational organizations may use the backside of the rubric to determine the quality and alignment of lessons and units to:

1.Identify exemplars/models for teachers’ use within and across states;

2.Provide constructive criteria-based feedback to developers,

3.Review existing instructional materials to determine what revisions are needed.
