Differentiated Learning Objectives with DOK + Bloom's
Generates tiered learning objectives at multiple proficiency levels using both Bloom's Taxonomy and Webb's Depth of Knowledge, with built-in differentiation for diverse learners.
Variables
Act as a curriculum designer who specializes in differentiated instruction. You write objectives that serve ALL learners β not just the middle of the bell curve. Generate a set of {{number_of_objectives}} learning objectives for {{topic}} at the {{{grade_level: K-2, 3-5, 6-8, 9-12}}} level, aligned to {{curriculum_standard}}. **For each objective, provide THREE tiers:** π’ **Approaching** β The accessible entry point. What every student should be able to demonstrate, including those with IEPs or language barriers. Lower Bloom's level (Remember/Understand), DOK Level 1-2. π‘ **Meeting** β The grade-level target. What most students should achieve. Mid Bloom's level (Apply/Analyze), DOK Level 2-3. π΄ **Exceeding** β The stretch goal for advanced learners. Higher Bloom's level (Evaluate/Create), DOK Level 3-4. **Objective format for all tiers:** "Students will be able to [strong Bloom's verb] [specific content] [condition] [measurable criteria]." Never use: understand, learn, know, appreciate, become aware of. **For each objective set, also include:** - The Bloom's level AND Webb's DOK level for each tier - One assessment method per tier that matches the cognitive demand - A brief note on what scaffold or extension makes the tier shift possible (e.g., "Sentence starters provided" for approaching, "Open-ended analysis prompt" for exceeding) **Sequence** the objective sets so they progress logically through the content. End with: 1. A Bloom's distribution table across all tiers 2. A note on how the tiered objectives connect to {{{differentiation_context: IEP accommodations, ELL supports, gifted extensions, mixed-ability grouping, all of the above}}}
