Rigorous Engagement: Complexity and Questioning
The relationship between complexity, rigor, and engagement Complexity refers to the quality of the source Rigor refers to the quality of the response to or use of the source Engagement is about how invested the student is in interacting with and using the source 10/10/2024 Rigorous Engagement 2

Rigorous Engagement Unpacking a source
What does the source say? Explicit meaning Response can be found in the text Ex. According to the table, which object has the lowest average density? a. Earth b. Ceres c. Saturn d. Pluto 10/10/2024 PRESENTATION TITLE 5
How does the source work? Implicit meaning Requires some interpretation and evaluation to respond Ex. Which statement is supported by data represented in the table? A. Earth shows greater variation in density than Ceres does B. Juno's average distance from the Sun is less than that of Ceres C. Some objects in the asteroid belt are greater in mass than Ceres is D. No other dwarf planet has a radius as large as that of Ceres 10/10/2024 PRESENTATION TITLE 6
What does the source mean? Analogic reasoning Interpret and apply - conceptual understandings Ex. Which data presented in the table would McKinnon find most useful to his argument? Connects other information in the passage to the information in the table. Students demonstrate logic and reasoning to select the correct response. 10/10/2024 Rigorous Engagement 7
What can we do now? Making connections Between sources Among evidence With peers To project or assignment What is the value of this source? 10/10/2024 Rigorous Engagement 8
Source complexity and complex tasks Honor the value of the source Use the source as a mentor model (like mentor texts but can apply to any source) to support rigorous thinking Use question structure regularly to promote automaticity are students developing their own deep questions to examine a source? 10/10/2024 Rigorous Engagement 9
