Bloom's Taxonomy PPT Show - PPSX

Bloom's Taxonomy is a framework for classifying educational goals and objectives into levels of complexity and specificity. It was originally proposed in 1956 by Benjamin Bloom and later revised in 2001. The taxonomy divides educational objectives into three domains: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. The cognitive domain, which deals with mental skills and knowledge, is the most widely used. It contains six levels moving from simple to complex: remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating. The revised taxonomy sought to better differentiate and define the cognitive levels. Bloom's Taxonomy provides a useful structure for designing instructional objectives, assessments, and activities aligned to different cognitive levels.

BLOOM’S TAXONOMY

In the 1950’s, Benjamin


Bloom recognized that
there is more than one
type of learning, and
that different skills are
required at different
levels of learning.
Bloom identified three domains of educational
activities: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor.
Domains can be thought of as categories.
The affective domain refers to attitude or the
perception of values.

The psychomotor domain was never completed


by Bloom and is related to the development of
manual or physical skills.

The cognitive domain is the one most used and


refers to knowledge or mental skills. We will be
concentrating on this domain.
Bloom’s taxonomy is a system for classifying
objectives, processes, principles, questions,
assignments, and facts in a hierarchy from simple
to complex, and from concrete to abstract.

It is a means of moving students along a


continuum of cognitive (thinking) abilities from
lower order thinking skills to higher order thinking
skills.
The original levels of Bloom’s
Taxonomy are:
knowledge
comprehension
application
analysis
synthesis
evaluation
In the 1990’s a group lead by
Loren Anderson, one of Bloom’s
students, began revising the
chart and published the
Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy
in 2001.
The new, revised levels of
Bloom’s Taxonomy are:
remembering
understanding
applying
analyzing
evaluating
creating
