Bloom's Taxonomy

I attended schools in China for sixteen years and have experienced one of the most tiring education systems; we have to stay at school from 8:00 am to 6:00 pm. However, this way of learning through lectures did not make me have a solid grasp of the topic I learned. In order to change my way of learning, my parents sent me to the United States, as the U.S. education system is highly valued. It is true that the the teaching method is totally different from what I experienced before. In the high…

incorporate each style, giving an equal chance for students to learn in the ‘90s. Bloom's Taxonomy Bloom's Taxonomy classified learning styles into six distinct levels of cognitive thinking: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation that was developed in 1956. Its structure was designed like a pyramid with evaluation at the top and knowledge on the bottom to stand as the foundation. Bloom's Taxonomy is no foreign in our classrooms today. Kolb Model According to…

 Assistive technology is great to have in the classroom because it helps a special needs student with communication problems to communicate. Voucher  An education voucher is a voucher that is given to parents so their child may go to a different school(National Center for the Study of Privatization in Education, June).  The purpose of the education voucher is so a child may get a better education at another school than what they are attending. ELL  ELL is anyone who is learning the…

develop high level questions, challenge the thinking of others and make positive contributions to the group. Sometime during the first semester, I read an article about the use of Bloom’s Questioning Stems in the classroom. I also went to a conference on differentiation that also presented information about using Bloom’s Taxonomy with students. What was presented made me change my thinking about how to completely implement my goal. It was said in the article and at the conference that it did…

measuring tapes. Now the students have to show their understanding of measurement by completing the workstation activities created for the skill. The educators will learn the activities are created based on each level of Bloom’s Taxonomy. According to Adams (2015) Bloom’s taxonomy levels differentiates cognitive skill levels and leads to a deeper learning and transfer of knowledge and skills to complete a variety of tasks (Adams, 2015, p. 152).Student instruction and activities are…

This paper is intended to identify best instructional practices in the mathematics classroom by considering the relevance of several learning theorists, addressing various teaching and learning strategies, and by applying information based on cognitive science. The individual needs of students and families specific to my classroom experience will also be shared to identify solutions needed to concerns brought up by differences in family backgrounds. Context This paper is centered on my…

active listener, it shows that listening involves given feedback to the speaker so they will that you were actually paying attention. Next topic would be Bloom Taxonomy is a classification of how we think in other words the higher or of how individuals think. It will discuss and explain why it is shaped in the form of a pyramid. Bloom Taxonomy is divided into six different learning styles and this paper will discuss each one. Kolb learning style is used a lot by educators this style teaches that…

differences of each domain. Before there can be a connection, one must understand what each domain means and who developed them. Benjamin Bloom developed all three of the domains, when he divided educational objectives into different categories and so Bloom’s Taxonomy, was born or developed in 1956. Cognitive domain is a compilation of six categories of a hierarchy of learning. The original six categories listed from the most complex to the simplest: evaluation, synthesis, analysis,…

from the student, and a verb according to the determined standard of learning (Biggs 1996, 2010; Ascough 2011). To determine level of learning and verb multiple taxonomical classifications are used which includes Bloom’s Taxonomy, SOLO Taxonomy and ICE taxonomy (page #). The choice of taxonomy depends on the liking and requirement of an instructor but should aligned with the expected level, domains and dimension of the learning (Biggs 2007, 2010; Wang…

integrative thinking, intercultural thinking, and metacognitive thinking in students. Other universities such as Brown, an Ivy League school founded in 1764, and the University of Illinois believe all courses and course syllabi should reflect Bloom’s and Fink’s Taxonomies (see Figures 1 and…
