Participants will learn how Depth of Knowledge determines
the cognitive demand of academic standards, curricular activities, and test
items based on the complexity of the content students must learn and the
conditions and criteria—or context—in which students must understand and use
their learning.
Participants will learn how to deconstruct the learning
intention of academic standards, curricular activities, and test items to
determine their DOK Level and how to reconstruct performance objectives into
DOK Learning Targets that specify the demand of the mental processing students
must perform and the response students must provide to curricular activities
and test items.
Each participant who attends will receive a copy of the
book, Deconstructing Depth of Knowledge:
A Method and Model for Deeper Teaching and Learning.
