  10. We said it doesn’t mean more of any of the following. -Time in the classroom -Credits to graduate -Work…assignments, projects, etc. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  11. How we will define it for this class. “Rigor is when every student in your classroom is challenged to achieve at their highest level of learning and performing.” INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  12. In our minds, rigor is nothing more than good instruction. Assessing each student’s knowledge and potential…. Challenging them based upon that knowledge and potential… Giving them the opportunity to demonstrate their learning in a variety of ways… INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  13. So for this class… Rigor is not just demanding more out of your students, it’s getting more out of them. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  14. To accomplish this: You must assess the potential of each of your students in relationship to the content you are teaching. Expectations!!! INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  15. You must first find what is the appropriate level of expectation for each student. Is the standard achievable for this student? Then you must constantly reassess that level as it is constantly changing as the student learns and the expectations become higher. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  16. 2. Provide a supportive and encouraging environment for them to learn and perform in. You can not demand excellence in your students without providing the tools and conditions for them attaining excellence. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  17. This includes: -Academic help -Emotional help -Opportunities to demonstrate their learning. (Other than tests) INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  18. 3. Provide them with the opportunities to demonstrate what they have learned at the highest levels possible. This means projects, performances, speeches, videos, etc. The more authentic the better. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  20. 2. Please do not leave today if you are unsure at all about what is expected in the Portfolio. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  21. 3. We do not use the payment tab on the PDE3 website. Because of that, it will always show on the PDE3 website that you haven’t paid for the class. We keep our own records and if there is problem with your fee, we will contact you. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  22. 4. After the class is completed, we don’t send you back your Portfolios. They will be available next February. Come to one of the classes that we teach in February and Dave will have your Portfolio available. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  23. 5. You can download all the Powerpoints used in this class at Joe’s website: JoeLoVerde.com Also the Portfolio, Practicum and Workbook are available for you to download on the website. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  24. The Portfolio, Practicum and Workbook are in Microsoft Word format. If you have any problems downloading the pages, contact Joe. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  25. 6. You can turn in your Portfolio/Practicum in either a hard copy or electronic form. If your handwriting is an issue, please type up the Portfolio. We have had a couple of Portfolios rejected because the reviewer had a difficult time reading the responses. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  26. 7. Once the Portfolios are turned in, we review them and will contact you if we have any concerns about the quality of your responses or if you failed to address one of the questions. We then forward the grades to the PDE3 office and they then ask for around 10% of the Portfolios for them to review. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  27. The selection of those 10% of the Portfolios is random and we have no control over whose Portfolio is selected or not selected. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  28. We have the system down and if you answer all the questions and put some thought into those responses, your Portfolio will pass review. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM

  29. 8. We must require that you turn your Portfolio in on time. We have to send the grades in together, so if a Portfolio is late, it is holding up the credit for everyone else in the class. INCREASING RIGOR IN THE CLASSROOM
