  • The task requires complex non-algorithmic thinking

  • The task requires students to explore and understand mathematics

  • The task requires the student think about their own thinking (monitoring their own cognitive process)

  • The task has elements that require cognitive effort because some parts are opened ended or have elements that are not clear cut
