Question 1

Spec Sheets

Accepted Answer

Learning List’s Spec Sheets provide a high-level overview of each material’s key instructional features and technology compatibility. These summaries help curriculum leaders and campus administrators efficiently identify resources that align with district or campus adoption criteria.

Question 2

Academic Attributes

Accepted Answer

After the editorial review is finalized, Learning List’s Director of Editorial Review completes the Academic Attributes section of the Spec Sheet. This section summarizes the material’s key instructional features, such as rigor, support for diverse learners, and ease of use, that are explored in greater depth in the full editorial review.

Question 3

Technology Attributes

Accepted Answer

To help districts avoid selecting digital materials that may not work with their existing technology, Learning List staff manually test key features of the material on commonly used devices and operating systems and document whether each feature performs as intended. Publishers also complete a Technology Attributes rubric, and each review includes a link to the publisher’s official technical specifications.
