Keynote with Kevin Gannon: Rethinking Rigor: Balancing Challenge and Support for Students.
“Rigor” is a key term used in educational settings—embracing the importance of intellectual growth and challenge for students. How do we find the balance of rigor in our classrooms and teaching? A certain amount of tension and stress are a part of learning, so what ways can we challenge students while balancing that with appropriate forms of support and guidance?
