Q: What is Depth and Complexity?
A: The Depth & Complexity Framework provides strategies for learners, that moves them from simply discussing higher-level thinking and developing learning opportunities that create broader layers of thinking. These strategies are what has been missing in typical education settings - the actual tools to write lessons that meet all demands of the TEKS while creating a rigorous and appropriately challenging learning for all students.
Depth & Complexity...
• Refers to approaching or studying something from the concrete to the abstract, from the known to the unknown.
• Requires students to examine topics by determining the facts, concepts, generalization, principles and theories related to them.
