4. DOK Levels 1 & 2: Common
Core State Standards (CCSS)
 Recall and Reproduction: Level 1
 DOK 1 requires recall of information, such as a fact,
definition, or term, or performance of a simple process
or procedure.
 Skills and Concepts: Level 2
 DOK 2 includes the engagement of some mental
processing beyond recalling or reproducing a response.
Items require students to make some decisions as to
how to approach the question or problem.

5. DOK Levels 3 & 4: CCSS
 Strategic Thinking: Level 3
 DOK 3 requires deep understanding as exhibited
through planning, using evidence, and more demanding
cognitive reasoning. The cognitive demands at Level 3
are complex and abstract.
 Extended Thinking: Level 4
 DOK 4 requires high cognitive demand and is very complex.
Students are expected to make connections – relate ideas
within the content or among content areas – and have to
select or devise one approach among many alternatives on
how to solve the problem.
