While writing these learning objectives, I was having a tough time trying to connect my objectives to the different DOK levels alongside which part of Bloom's Taxonomy that it displayed. After doing some research, I was able to decipher which types of assessments correlated with which types of DOK levels, and even was able to structure my entire week by progressively challenging my students more and more each day.

As a teacher, this is a crucial skill because it allows me to more intentionally create formative assessments that are measurable and can be used to track student progress so that I can tailor my teaching to their individual needs, as well as create a high quality lesson that ensures transformative learning.

I think that this article is something that was actually so interesting and practical because I've always loved data manipulation, and getting to see how teachers are using their data to help students succeed is something that has always been fascinating to me.

In terms of the impact that this will have on me as a teacher, page 5 outlines a 5 step process for data usage that I think is critical to understanding.

"1. User-friendly data reports

2. Test-in-hand analysis

3. Deep analysis

4. Immediate turnaround of assessment results

5. Planned analysis meetings between teachers and leader."

These 5 steps ensure that all parties are able to benefit from data collection and interpretation.
