Innovation Challenge #6 - Academic Rigorous Experiences
Challenge Objective:
“Rigor is the result of work that challenges students’ thinking in new and interesting ways. It occurs when they are encouraged toward a sophisticated understanding of fundamental ideas and are driven by curiosity to discover what they don’t know.” (from A New Definition of Rigor) When students experience rigorous learning environments, overall achievement is boosted. All students, no matter their level can experience rigor in learning.
