After digesting and reflecting on last week's article about "Redefining Rigor", I was on the hunt for some practical applications for educators. In my search, I came across this publication: "Teaching for Rigor:A Call for a CriticalInstructional Shift -- Why essential shifts in instruction arenecessary for teachers and studentsto succeed with college and careerreadiness standards." A graphic on page 17 caught my attention, as did this quote: "This model provides teachers with the
tools they need to intentionally align
their instruction with higher taxonomic
levels as well as purposefully plan for
student autonomy."
