The Difference Between FLEX Curriculum and Traditional Curriculum/Textbooks

Learn how FLEX Curriculum differs from traditional curriculum and textbooks.

• FLEX is dynamic, not static. On average, a school district only updates curriculum resources for a content area every 5–7 years. FLEX Collections are updated regularly throughout the year. FLEX content is responsive to world events and the requests and needs of art teachers around the world.
• FLEX is personalized, not one-size-fits-all. Search features allow teachers to filter based on standards, skill level, and topics. 
• FLEX is organic, not prescriptive. Because art teachers are creative lesson architects who are continually problem-solving, designing, and innovating, they do not want or need a prescriptive curriculum. They need a rigorous, relevant, and flexible curriculum they can modify based on their needs.
