Bloom's Taxonomy

We worked with an old friend this week: Bloom's Taxonomy of Learning. We read and analyzed a class that might be adapted to an online environment. To start this, we used the taxonomy.

I read somewhere that writing objectives based on the Taxonomy was old-fashioned. Sinc e I started teaching 30 years ago, I have used this framework to build objectives for the classes I teach, making sure I was progressing from recall to internalization with each unit.

You can see my analysis of the course here.

Kathy: Your reference to Bloom's as an old friend picqued my interest. I tried to check out the link you provided but it wasn't working. I'll try again later.
