ESSENTIALS
FOR ACHIEVING
RIGOR
Banish gaps in learning—for good
Bright futures for students, peace of mind for you
What’s the key ingredient for readying students for successful futures?
Research proves again and again that it’s core instruction.
In the New Economy, technology changes the workforce so quickly
it’s impossible to know exactly what careers will be available when
students graduate. Training students for a future of unknowns can seem
intimidating…but it doesn’t have to be!
Here’s why. At LSI, we help teachers and school leaders focus class time
on activities that build rigor by emphasizing critical thinking, higherorder problem solving, and transferable skills. That way, when students
graduate, they’ll be as adaptable as the workforce around them—and
they’ll thank you for getting them there.
