DOK - Oh My!

Hey guys. I hope DOK is not becoming a nasty acronym to us but I found a short video to attempt to shed some additional light on the subject. For sure, this is a complete novice subject for me and I'm no Mike Rush but this clip made some sense. We didn't have time to share it out in today's staff meeting so I thought I would post it here today. This is courtesy of NY DOE.

I also had a short discussion with my content group about DBQ (Document Based Questions). They are the Internet version of our PLT (Performance Literacy Task). Don't you just love all the letters? Most of them include scaffold ed questions prior to the "big" task. That seems to be following the pattern of including DOK 1, 2, 3, and some 4s in the same task. I have linked some sites here that include DBQs. If you have interest, check them out here.
