Most educators are more familiar with Bloom’s Taxonomy than with Webb’s Depth of Knowledge.
Blooms Taxonomy
In 1965 Benjamin Bloom identified three types of learning: cognative (mental skills/knowledge), affective (emotional/attitudes) <could be “habits of mind”>, and psychomotor (manual/physical skills) Within the cognative area, there are six progressive categories in the development of intellectual skills. Each step must be mastered before the next can occur. (Note the levels listed below do not reflect the 1990’s revision of the taxonomy)" -

"The Smarter Balanced Assessment Consortium will conduct a Pilot Test of its assessments February 20 through May 10, 2013 in grades 3-11. Smarter Balanced will select schools for the Pilot Test using two approaches or components:
The "Scientific" component will target a representative sample of schools to yield critical data about the items developed to date as well as how the test administration system is functioning.
The “Volunteer” component will be open to all schools in Smarter Balanced states and will ensure that all schools have the opportunity to experience the basic functionality of the test administration system. Schools can volunteer for the Pilot Test by completing the online survey External link opens in new window or tab..
The Pilot Test flyer (PDF) and the Pilot Test FAQs (PDF) from Smarter Balanced have more information about the Pilot Test.
Choose a county in the dropdown box below to display the list of schools selected for the "Scientific" component by district." -

"Common Core State Standards (CCSS) include basic technology skills to help students succeed; but located throughout the standards is an understanding for students to use technology to help them learn in all areas. Whether it is using tools to solve math problems, to access information, or to promote literacy and communication skills; technology is part of the learning solution. Technology is an integral part in supporting these Standards. The Common Core Technology Institute will be broken into two separate days."
