The Minnesota Partnership for Collaborative Curriculum (MPCC) is a grassroots initiative of Minnesota school districts coming together to create a comprehensive collection of digital open education resources (OER). Over 200 districts joined the project, with a goal to design digital course work for each of the four core subject areas – math, science, English language arts, and social studies – for grades 3-12.
Fall 2020 School Year
As Minnesota teachers begin preparing for the 2020 – 2021 school year, MPCC courses are available to support the delivery of activities aligned to the Minnesota State Academic Standards for grades 3 -12 in the core subject areas.

What MPCC teacher users saying-
“…most if not all that you find online from paid websites are outdated for high school history. This [MPCC] US and World History,…is 100% broken down to the MN standards. I like how it iss student-centered learning that is responsive to their learning by using Pre-Assessment charts and KWL. I am just glad I don’t have to buy something and then spend hours tweaking it to make it more efficient for my class. ” High School History Teacher- 5.3.2020
“This is just what I need right now. It’s like you read my mind. I can’t say thank you enough!” Math Teacher -3.31.2020
Distance Learning Support
Teachers are looking for digital solutions to deliver curriculum for the rest of this school year. MPCC courses are available to meet this need for all teachers in Minnesota, regardless of their district’s membership status.
In the best interest of our 3-12th grade educators, we are sharing links to the courses in Google Folders so that all districts can benefit from them, regardless of the LMS used by the district. The link below will give you access to the Google Folders and Moodle.
