What is Bloom's taxonomy?
Bloom's Taxonomy is a framework used to categorize educational learning objectives into varying degrees of complexity. These levels range from basic recollection and understanding to higher-order thinking abilities like analysis, assessment, and creativity. This framework allows to create meaningful learning tasks and evaluations that push students at various cognitive levels and encourage in-depth comprehension and critical thinking.
-
- Create: learners can put elements together to form a coherent or functional whole.
- Evaluate: learners can evaluate the information by making judgments about the value of ideas, items, materials, and more.
- Analyze: learners can break down parts of a concept for more profound analysis.
- Apply: learner can apply the concept in real life.
- Understand:learners can understand and synthesize information through interpretation,classifying, summarizing, inferring, comparing, and explaining.
- Remember: learners are able to recall, defining, or labelling.
IMPORTANT. Some of these levels may be incompatible with the Depth of Knowledge (DOK) levels:
