"Absolutely fabulous! Rigor in the Remote Learning Classroom is a comprehensive K-12 'how to' treasure trove of strategies, resources, grade-level models, samples and more! It purposefully addresses the demands and intricacies of educating our students to their fullest potential through--the now needed--online remote learning. In this book, Barbara Blackburn has done the research and vetting for us. Thank you, Barbara! After reading, I know teachers will feel better equipped and confident using remote learning as they strengthen and enhance their planning, preparation, delivery, and assessment of students’ learning of standards and skills through individual and collaborative means."

--Laurelle Texidor, New London Public Schools Secondary Director"[This book]is a timely guide and important reminder for administrators and teachers during this unprecedented time. Blackburn presents a framework for teachers to adapt to remote learning not by lowering expectations for their students or themselves, but rather by developing a scholastic environment rooted in rigor."
