Transcript PowerPoint: Webb`s Depth of Knowledge

CCRS QUARTERLY #4
WEBB’S DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE
April 14-17, 2015
IT’S NOT ONLY ABOUT THE ANSWER…
IT’S ABOUT THE QUESTION
OUTCOME: Participants will analyze each level of
Webb’s Depth of Knowledge (DOK) and make
connections between DOK and Aspire.
• What is Webb’s Depth of Knowledge?
• How does each level connect to Aspire?
• How does each level look in practice?
• Is the instruction complex or difficult?
• Are we doing deeper or wider?
WHAT IS WEBB’S DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE?
• Basic knowledge of the standards does not bring rigor to the
classroom
• Standards must be implemented:
• Use local resources
• Student engagement with activities requiring higher levels of
cognitive demand
• Assessments aligned to standards
• There is a direct alignment between standards and test items in
standardized assessments
• CCRS + DOK = Aspire
SO…“DOK IS THE TOOL EDUCATORS CAN USE TO ANALYZE
THE COGNITIVE DEMAND INTENDED BY THE STANDARDS,
CURRICULAR ACTIVITIES AND ASSESSMENT TASKS.”
WHAT DEPTH OF KNOWLEDGE IS NOT
• DOK is NOT a check of whether a task is completed
correctly; it is the kind of thinking involved in the task
• DOK is NOT about difficulty, it is about COMPLEXITY
• DOK is NOT additive, it is cumulative
• DOK does NOT classify the level of each cognitive
demand based upon the verb alone – as does Bloom’s
Taxonomy, it is the verb plus what follows the verb in the
lesson objective / outcome
Webb’s Depth of Knowledge:
•Level 1: Recall/Reproduction
•Level 2: Skill/Concept
•Level 3: Strategic Thinking
•Level 4: Extended Thinking
