What does high-level challenge in the classroom look like?
Creating challenge in classrooms is an essential ingredient of any good learning environment. It takes learners out of their comfort zone and into the unknown by generating a tension that does not overwhelm nor interrupt learning. So, when purposefully done, it enhances and deepens learning by requiring students to overcome obstacles, resolve conundrums and answer their own questions through carefully constructed scenarios.
