 This presentation is the fourth presentation in a series on the materials adoption process. Participants identify must-haves and nice to haves when it comes to a new resource. They also engage in possible decision-making approaches and determine local priorities in the decision-making process. Finally, the presentation includes information on how to move from surface level to deep level learning to continue the book study on Visible Learning for Literacy. 

This is the final presentation on the series on the Materials Adoption Process. It reviews the materials adoption process and the resources utilized during the process.  It also includes the conclusion of the book study on Visible Learning for Literacy.

This survey asks educators to reflect on the materials adoption process and the professional development in which they engaged. When compared with the results from the pre materials adoption survey, data can be gathered on the change in teacher knowledge of the materials adoption process from start to finish.
