EdCredible? and FLDOE Launch Civics Education Instructional Materials and Civics End-of-Course Assessment Test Item Specifications Review Site!

For immediate release 8-15-19

EdCredible? in partnership with the Florida Department of Education (FLDOE) is pleased to announce that the Florida Civics Education Instructional Materials Review and Civics End-of-Course Assessment Test Item Specifications Review is now “Live”. The review is open to all key education stakeholders and the general public at: www.floridacivicsreview.org.

The expansion of the partnership between EdCredible? and the FLDOE comes on the heels of a highly successful partnership for the statewide English Language Arts and Mathematics Standards Review, which recorded over 75,000 standard reviews from both professional educators and the public at large, to share their opinions with the FLDOE. It also marks a major milestone in EdCredible’s history as Florida becomes the first state ever to use EdCredible’s Instructional Materials Adoption and Review Platform to conduct a statewide review of instructional materials. 

“The Florida Department of Education is a terrific partner and it’s exciting to work with an organization always pushing the envelope of innovation,” said Kurt Fichtman, Founder and CEO of EdCredible. Mr. Fichtman went on to say, “The way in which the Department of Education is conducting the mandated reviews is revolutionary and EdCredible? is proud to play a role in their success.”

EdCredible? and the FLDOE are committed to a transparent and equitable review process that offers all education stakeholders the opportunity to provide input on the Civics End-of-Course (EOC) Assessment Test Item Specifications and state adopted Civics Education instructional materials.
