Depth of Knowledge (DOK) Question Generator
Generate standards-aligned DOK questions for any lesson and any grade level in seconds. Create depth of knowledge questions that push student thinking beyond recall.
Deeper engagement shouldn’t require more prep time
Brisk helps you create DOK questions that challenge students to think critically about any idea or topic. Generate questions based on your favorite resource — an article, a video, a PDF — or tell Brisk what you need and it’ll build differentiated questions from scratch.
Build from any content or start fresh
Open Brisk on any article, video, or PDF, or start from scratch with your topic. Brisk generates depth of knowledge questions that match your content — no more hunting for the right questions or writing them yourself.
Get standards-aligned DOK questions
Attach your standards and Brisk will align every question to them, or get automatic, district-wide standards alignment with Curriculum Intelligence. Either way, your depth of knowledge questions will stay grounded in what students need to know.
Differentiate across grade levels and languages
Teaching multiple grade levels or multilingual students? Generate bundles of DOK questions for up to 3 grade levels and in up to 3 languages at once. Every student gets questions that push their thinking at the right level.
