Getting Students to Knowledge Utilization: Developing Learning Tasks that Foster Deep Application of Content

This session will focus on Marzano’s Taxonomy “Knowledge Utilization” level, and how educators can leverage this framework to design tasks that encourage students to apply learning targets and concepts meaningfully. Teachers will explore how to craft tasks that require students to apply, analyze, and synthesize knowledge in authentic and challenging ways. This session is ideal for educators who want to deepen students’ understanding and engagement by focusing on the practical application of knowledge, ensuring that their lesson designs promote not just recall, but the ability to use learning targets and concepts in real-world contexts.
