  This all adds up to good teaching! I don't think each description defines rigor since there is more to an effective learning experience than just the rigor, but I certainly agree with all of descriptors in the left column! I think they're really describing best practices in teaching and learning, so rigor is connected to things like engagement, relevance, student-centered work, open-ended problems, critical thinking skills, accessibility, and high expectations for everyone.

Rigor involves all partners in teaching and learning.

  Very important point - I agree! Students, teachers and other thinkers involved in a learning experience have a shared responsibility to create and maintain the correct environment for rigorous learning.

A rigorous lesson embraces the messiness of a good mathematics task and the deep learning that it has the potential to achieve.

  YES, YES!!! Bring on the productive struggle and messy learning!!! That is what learning is like in real life and that is what we need to provide for our students or they will never truly learn to be critical thinkers, independent problem solvers or inventive thinkers!

  Absolutely - this is how we learn to differentiate for students throughout the learning experience.
