Product Alignment  Our Standards Team specialists analyze each educational standard to identify its core concepts. Then they apply the same critical eye to your products (textbooks, videos, workbooks, etc.) and determine how or if your objectives or skillsets align with concepts evident in the state standards for corresponding topics, grades, or courses.

Our Standards Team will provide you with a detailed document of your product’s alignment to a state’s standards. They will also match your objectives to the correct standards and link multiple objectives where appropriate.

Product Correlation  RCS’s comprehensive correlations show which of your product’s objectives address which academic standard for a given state. The resulting document outline is based on a state’s academic standard outline and includes a narrative of why the objective or skillset is applicable to each standard.

Standards-Tagged Testbanks  Using our powerful test-generating software, TestCheck™, we can develop a testbank customized to your product and aligned to state and/or national standards.

Our Standards Team specialists prepare entire testbanks with state and national standard “tags” that are aligned with each objective within the testbank. Teachers can use the tags to search the testbank for only the items that assess specific state standards. This allows teachers to create assessments specific to the standards they are teaching.

TestCheck™’s functionality allows teachers to run diagnostic reports which show student and class mastery of state and/or national standards.

The RCS Standards Team is ready to help you help teachers. Our experienced staff has provided quality state and national standards alignment and correlation services for a variety of educational products.
