I am not in it for the win. I just want to simplify education ... teaching kids doesn't have to be so dang difficult to understand. #edchat

Shouldn't rigor always be an educational goal? Before CCSS, during,& when the CC movement passes. Rigor is too important for one era #edchat

tomwhitby - Moderator Oct 10 @ 7:28 PM EDT

We have been talking about Rigor from the inception of the common core standards. Has it taken hold and become a goal in education? #Edchat

HI. I am from Singapore. Coincidentally, my lecturer spoke about how stifling it can be when students suggest new ideas and we just say.."but, it won't work". #edchat

Maybe it's less that we need a new word and more that we need a better understanding of the word rigor. #Edchat

Good point. I guess Bloom's taxonomy and UBD would help with brainstorming the discussion on rigor. #edchat #ASCD

I think words like analyze, evaluate, and reflect should be a part of the rigor discussion. #edchat
