Critiques of Daggetts Rigor & Relevancy FrameworkDaggetts Rigor & Relevancy Framework:Is not responsive to changes in education;Lacks emphasis on deep content knowledge;Does not consider what students bring to the learning;Is used as a promotional tool by the International Center for Leadership in Education;Contains ambiguous terms that sell.

Reconceptualizing Rigor and Relevancy as a Hierarchy
ConclusionIf we are going to implement the CCSS with fidelity and teach the skills students need to be college- and career-ready, we can no longer teach to the test. Rather, we must devise learning opportunities that prepare students to engage the global community. To do so, we must devise content-area assessments that develop students research skills, abilities to analyze and respond to information texts, and present information in meaningful/innovative ways.
