Rigor as Skill Building with Larry JacksonHow can academic rigor be defined and enacted in humanities courses to promote learning and skill building? How can we engage and challenge our students while also supporting them? In this episode, we tackle these questions with Larry Jackson (https://www.college.columbia.edu/node/19842), Associate Dean of Academic Affairs and Director of the Center for the Core Curriculum at Columbia College. Columbia’s Core Curriculum (https://bulletin.columbia.edu/columbia-college/core-curriculum/) comprises the required courses for Columbia undergraduates in literature, philosophy, history, music, art, and science.
