2023 Early Hearing Detection & Intervention Conference

Tools to Increase Accessibility to Mathematics while Deepening Depth of Knowledge
This session will demonstrate 1) a tool for identifying depth of knowledge of questions and activities in mathematics, and 2) mathematics tasks that are accessible to students and that address DoK 2 and 3. Workshop participants will engage in and discuss a variety of mathematical tasks. Laptops or tablets will be used.
Boaler (2016) notes that virtually all students can learn mathematics at high levels. To do so students need opportunities to engage in challenging mathematical activities. This is especially true for students considered “low-achievers” and/or special education. Lewis (2014) explains that special education students understand mathematics in different ways than their peers. Focusing on how these students understand, rather than what they do not understand, provides an opportunity to increase their mathematical understanding and to provide appropriate Tier 2 and 3 interventions. Further, the demonstrated tasks form part of creating more effective and engaging Tier 1 instruction.
- Session participants will understand what DoK 2 and 3 look like in a mathematics classroom.
- Session participants will engage in a variety of DoK 2 and 3 level mathematics tasks, identify the DoK level, and understand how to use tasks like these in their classrooms.
- Session participants will analyze student work samples and explain how the work samples could inform instruction (Tier 1) and intervention (Tier 2 and 3).
