The Essential Flipbook for Achieving Rigo

Edited by Amy M. Dujon, this guide is designed to provide classroom teachers with an overview of the key criteria for the Focused Teacher Evaluation Model--complete with multiple sample techniques for each element and practical advice for their implementation. Educators who have begun the process of implementing standards-based learning in their classrooms will find that this is the essential flipbook for achieving rigor. The Essentials for Achieving Rigor series details essential classroom strategies to support the complex shifts in teaching that are necessary for an environment where academic rigor is a requirement for all students. Written by Robert Marzano with the support of more than a dozen experts, the Essentials model draws on instructional strategies grounded in research documented in Marzano's The Art and Science of Teaching (2007) and Instructional Empowerment's own research and pilot projects, conducted in districts across the United States.
