Week 2

Like any research project, it's important to "skinny down" my idea. As I started this journey, I couldn't decide on what I wanted to focus. However, after being patient and conducting research, I found that I continually came back to rigor, and often the lack of a rigorous environment in our school system. I want to research something I can apply directly and immediately to my classroom, so my focus is rigor and assessments--how to design and apply rigorous assessments to increase student learning and motivation.
