Open Middle... Math with DOK

3/25/2016

Great resource to check out for Math problems aligned to DOK... read below for more information.
Picture
Open middle problems require a higher depth of knowledge than most problems that assess procedural and conceptual understanding.   They support the Common Core State Standards and  provide students with opportunities for discussing their thinking.
​
Some additional characteristics of open middle problems include:
  • They often have multiple ways of solving them as opposed to a problem where you are told to solve it using a specific method. Example
  • They may involve optimization such that it is easy to get an answer but more challenging to get the best or optimal answer. Example
  • They may appear to be simple and procedural in nature but turn out to be more challenging and complex when you start to solve it. Example
  • They are generally not as complex as a performance task which may require significant background context to complete. Example
We hope you enjoy these problems.  Please be sure to send us any ideas for problems we can add.
Nanette Johnson, Robert Kaplinsky and Bryan Anderson
