The largest, most difficult, and most impactful “shift” in Common Core and other “Next Generation” learning standards is the recognition that students must be able to perform at a deeper level of cognition – literally, “depth of knowledge”.  In mathematics, the majority (~80%) of Common Core and similar standards in mathematics establish “Depth of Knowledge 2:  Skills & Concepts” as the most common level of student performance.  In English Language Arts, “Depth of Knowledge 3: Strategic Thinking & Reasoning” is the most common level of student performance.  In this month’s webinar for the edWeb.net Implementing the Common Core State Standards, presenter Kevin Baird took participants on a journey to achieving Depth of Knowledge Two.  Participants engaged in deeper understanding of what “Depth of Knowledge” means and looks like, as well as specific strategies to meet the level of cognitive demand required by next generation and Common Core learning Standards. Pragmatic, real-world, achievable strategies were presented, for immediate use by educators.  View the webinar to dive deeper into thinking and cognitive demand, and identify resources to put your students – and teachers – on a pathway for success.
