1. TECHNOLOGY: A TOOL FOR DIGGING DEEPER INTO CONTENT KNOWLEDGE Tammy Seneca, Ph.D. West Baton Rouge Parish Schools Tammy.Seneca@wbrschools.net www.wbrschools.net LaLAMP Conference October 22, 2014

2. Cognitive Rigor What does cognitive rigor mean to you?

3. We are asking for more cognitive demand from our students… The kind and level of thinking required of students to successfully engage with and solve a task. The kind and level of thinking required of students to successfully engage with and solve a task. Ways in which students interact with content. Ways in which students interact with content.

4. DOK is not about difficulty; its about complexity ! It’s about the ways that our students’ interact with content!

5. Webb’s Depth of Knowledge http://vimeo.com/42788913

6. What is Depth of Knowledge ?

8. What is the difference between Bloom’s and Webb? Bloom’s Taxonomy –What type of thinking (verbs) is needed to complete a task? Webb’s Depth of Knowledge –How deeply do you have to understand the content to successfully interact with it? How complex is the content?

9. “A mile wide and an inch deep” What does DOK focus on? Focuses on complexity of content standards in order to successfully complete an assessment or task. The outcome (product) is the focus of the depth of understanding.

10. What DOK is NOT!!!! a taxonomy (Bloom’s) the same as difficulty about using “verbs” NOT The Depth of Knowledge is NOT determined by the verb (Bloom’s Taxonomy), but by the context in which the verb is used and the depth of thinking required. With DOK what comes after the verb is more important than the verb itself!

11. T here is usually a right answer! The focus is on strategic thinking, so there can be multiple right answers!
