I would know that rigor is taking place when students are discussing their reasoning, and there is disagreement. Reasoning with each other as to why their answer is correct. Checking their answers with a partner, and asking thought provoking questions.

The class is quiet and determined to solve the given problem. They also are somewhat confident that they can at least attempt the problem.

The best time is somewhere in the beginning of the lesson where  students have to challenge themselves and use their prior knowledge from their experiences.  The observer will know that it is a harder task because the students will not be able to simply cookie cut the answer from the notes.  Students will have to problem solve, collaborate, and use other strategies for the task.

The best time would be when students have already had a quiz or test and a rigorous task is given to ensure that the class is definitely ready to move onto the next unit. Possibly a preliminary task to prepare them for the next lesson. Breaking student into groups and giving them a project to work on together that allows them to extend their learning on the particular topic. Or having students explain in words how to solve problems.

On the one hand - rigorous problems should be done at the end of a unit, once students' have basic knowledge.  On the other hand - a rigorous problem can be introduced at the beginning of a topic to inspire student interest and the problem can be revisited as knowledge is gained.

We think that the best time to engage students is after going through some HW. The other time would be to start the day with a rigorous problem.

One can tell when students are working through a problem with rigor is when they are engaged and can explain to you that rigor is happening. An observer looks for work taking place, some collaboration, use of prior knowledge, and senses.
