PLN9: Rigor Redefined

     In “Rigor Redefined” by Tony Wagner, he talks about how modern classes are beginning to lack some of the skills necessary to be successful in a workplace.  Tony asked many business leaders what they looked for in the best worker and made a list of qualities.  When he observed classes he began to see how little of the qualities were shown in students classes.  This article made me think about how I could apply these qualities.  This article influences the world of education because it is about the effectiveness of it.  It effects the world around me because I am a student and this article talks about our education.  Tony showed characteristics of being a philanthropist by writing this article for us.  The problem is that we can't do a lot about it.
