THESE STANDARDS RAISED THE BAR FOR TEACHING AND LEARNING MATERIALS, YET THEY WERE LARGELY UNAVAILABLE IN THE MARKET. IN SEPTEMBER 2017, THE NONPROFIT EDREPORTS, A "CONSUMER REPORTS" FOR INSTRUCTIONAL MATERIALS, HIGHLIGHTED THESE GAPS IN THE TEXTBOOK MARKET, FINDING THAT MOST TEXTBOOKS WERE NOT ALIGNED TO THE STANDARDS, DESPITE HAVING HAD SINCE 2012 TO DO SO. OPEN UP RESOURCES DEBUTED WITH A MIDDLE SCHOOL MATHEMATICS CURRICULUM AND AN ELEMENTARY ENGLISH LANGUAGE ARTS PROGRAM, BOTH OF WHICH WERE RATED BEST-IN-CLASS IN THEIR RESPECTIVE CATEGORIES ON EDREPORTS. IT WAS THE FIRST TIME COMPREHENSIVE, CORE CURRICULA THAT WERE FULLY ACCESSIBLE WERE ALSO DEEMED HIGH QUALITY. OUR DISRUPTED THE MARKET, PROVING THAT FREE AND HIGH QUALITY WERE NOT MUTUALLY EXCLUSIVE.

ADDITIONALLY, OUR'S MATERIALS ARE CREATED WITH EQUITY AS A FOUNDATIONAL DESIGN PRINCIPLE, INCLUDING RESEARCH-BASED SUPPORT FOR ENGLISH LANGUAGE LEARNERS AND STUDENTS WITH VARYING ABILITIES.TO SUPPORT IMPLEMENTATION OF THEIR OPEN CURRICULA, OUR ESTABLISHED A BENCH OF HIGH-QUALITY TEACHER LEADERS IN RESIDENCE, PROFESSIONAL LEARNING PROVIDERS ACROSS THE COUNTRY, AND AN OPENLY ACCESSIBLE PROFESSIONAL LEARNING COMMUNITY. COMMUNITY COACHES, ALL OF WHOM ARE CURRENT PRACTITIONERS AND MASTER TEACHERS OF OUR CURRICULA FOR EACH GRADE LEVEL, NURTURE THE COMMUNITY THROUGH VIRTUAL PROFESSIONAL LEARNING OPPORTUNITIES. COMMUNITY COACHES ALSO PLAY A KEY ROLE IN OUR'S ANNUAL NATIONAL CONFERENCE, HIVE, WHICH IS AN OPPORTUNITY FOR EDUCATORS FROM AROUND THE COUNTRY TO CONVENE FOR INTENSIVE PROFESSIONAL LEARNING TO SUPPORT THEIR IMPLEMENTATION OF OUR'S CURRICULA.
