TEA has released information regarding the new Open Education Resources (OER) that are currently undergoing the SBOE’s Instructional Materials Review and Approval (IMRA) process. The new OER has been branded as Bluebonnet Learning. To participate in the Strong Foundations Implementation grant, district would need to adopt the new edition of the OER, Bluebonnet Learning. Please note that the current editions of the OER being implemented, most commonly referred to as Amplify, Eureka, and Carnegie, will not be eligible to be part of the LASO 3 Strong Foundations Implementation grant.
