Mission The Quality Classroom Consortium promotes student achievement through the collaborative use of information and shared learning resources.

Vision In an educational world rich with data, QCC educators have immediately accessible electronic tools to integrate curriculum, instruction and assessment. All students will have a personalized learner profile that enables teachers to address individual learner’s needs. The collective resources of the consortium are learning instructional tools for the teacher, student and parent.

Shared Beliefs • Teachers will have availability to the appropriate student and curricular information to make instructional decisions at the classroom level. • Enabling and empowering technologies are necessary to meet individualized student needs. • Ease of access to real-time information is vital for the success of instruction and learning. • Quality instructional practices require the use of data analysis tools. • Collaboration among school districts improves the quality of professional development and information sharing. • A personal learning plan for each student based on standards and assessment anchors is essential for differentiated instruction. • Quality instructional practices are enhanced by the employment of easy-to-use and easy-to-access tools that integrate research-based resources into lesson plans aligned with standards-based curricula. • Best practices regarding instructional resources will be continuously identified and evaluated. • Ongoing sustained professional development on the use of data to support instruction is essential. • Classrooms of learning can be brick-and-mortal and/or virtual.
