THA knows scholars are deeply engaged when they synthesize diverse information/perspectives/view points, consistently complete the cognitive work during the lesson, build upon peers’ thinking, receive feedback from teacher and peers, take academic risks and provide meaningful oral or written evidence to support their thinking. To do this, teachers must know the status of each scholars’ progress towards an objective, scholars must display deep understanding through use of formal and informal assessments, scholars must monitor their own progress, and teachers must ensure scholars are on track to achieve or surpass rigorous course learning goals.
