The ToddCast - Depth and Complexity
Introduction to Depth and Complexity Framework - this is a learning platform developed at the California Department of Education that centers around 11 icons designed to push the thinking of students to the next level. The icons are broken down into 8 focusing on depth; patterns, trends, details, big idea, rules, unanswered questions, ethics, and language of the discipline. There are also 3 complexity icons; across disciplines, over time, and multiple perspectives. This Todd Talk walks you through these icons and how they may be used in the classroom to increase the depth of thinking as well as its complexity.
