Tool 3 focuses on the extent to mathematics curriculum materials address overarching considerations related to equity, assessment, and technology. This tool guides reviewers to find evidence of teacher support with regard to establishing equitable teaching practices, integrating formative assessment into teaching, and using technology to support the learning and teaching of mathematics. The tools developed by the team provide school administrators, teachers, and others involved in selecting mathematics curriculum materials with information to carefully analyze the materials based on important criteria and provide evidence on which to base curriculum materials adoption decisions.
