Welcome!
The Quantile Framework® for Mathematics is a tool that takes the guesswork out of mathematics instruction. States across the country are reporting Quantile measures for their students because Quantiles empower educators to meet the needs of ALL learners.
If you are a Textbook Publisher interested in learning about Quantiles or about our mathematics textbook calibrations, then you have come to the right place!
If you are a parent or educator interested in learning which textbooks have been calibrated with Quantile measures, you may view Textbook Lessons and their detailed calibration data by searching the QTaxon database, using the QTaxon Search or Textbook Search.
Overview
The Quantile Framework uses a common, developmental scale to describe a student’s mathematical achievement and the difficulty of specific mathematical skills and concepts.
Quantiles empowers educators to make actionable decisions regarding mathematics instruction when the student's readiness to learn and the instructional resources are matched.
To accomplish this goal, MetaMetrics, Inc., the developer of the Quantile Framework, feels that in order for teachers to harness the real power of the Quantile Framework (targeting instruction), all the resources used to teach mathematics need to be calibrated to the Quantile scale. Each mathematics textbook lesson is calibrated with a Quantile measure, which provides a way for educators to 'match' resources to student readiness.
Educators can then use the results of the Textbook Search engine to:
- improve mathematics instruction and achievement
- differentiate instruction
Licensing Opportunities
MetaMetrics is making an ongoing effort to calibrate all mathematics textbooks to the Quantile scale and make them freely available to educators through our on-line database.
If you are interested in viewing these calibrations, please visit the Textbook Search. All of the measures can be licensed for any purpose, such as marketing, building new programs and series, or to leverage products in states reporting Quantile measures.
