Our cause
The Knowledge Matters Campaign believes high-quality curriculum grounded in the science of reading, learning, and knowledge-building is an essential lever to transform instruction, promote equity, and sustainably ensure all students can be strong readers, writers, thinkers, and speakers.
We provide free, research-based tools and learning opportunities for the field, including our podcasts, webinars, our Curriculum Directory and Review Tools, and sponsorship of the Curriculum Matters Professional Learning Network (PLN).
Our work is informed by an independent Scientific Advisory Committee of leading experts in cognitive science, education research, and public policy and builds on more than three decades of field-leading expertise by StandardsWork, the parent organization of Knowledge Matters.
