RIGOUR in the
REMOTE LEARNING
CLASSROOM
with Dr Barbara Blackburn
Dr Barbara Blackburn returns for a new webinar series which explore the question of how rigor can be applied to the remote learning classroom. As schools have shifted to alternative models of instruction throughout 2020, Barbara guides school leaders and teachers through a consistency-based approach, covering scaffolding, collaboration and effective assessments which ensures that the strong progress previously made in the face to face classroom is not lost but enhanced through a series of practical strategies and activities.
"Rigor is creating an environment in which each student is expected to learn at high levels, and each is supported so he or she can learn at high level, and each student demonstrates learning at high level."
