In Brazil, educational materials must be authorized by the Ministry of Education (Ministério da Educação) or state secretariats of education. This is a critical concept in Brazilian schools where there is strong oversight of educational content. In the USA, 'authorized' materials are typically approved by state departments of education or local school districts, reflecting more decentralized educational governance.
