Want to design writing assignments that are cognitively rigorous, inclusive, and adaptable across disciplines? This hands-on workshop introduces a practical prompt template aligned with Depth of Knowledge (DOK) levels to help educators generate meaningful, flexible writing assignments using AI. You’ll learn how to scaffold prompts for different DOK levels, and adapt assignments for various content types and learning environments.
