Resources to Bloom's Taxonomy

This module expands the usefulness of Bloom’s taxonomy beyond its original intent of clarifying educational objectives to help faculty prepare better-designed courses, achieve more student-centered implementation, and establish outcomes-oriented evaluation criteria. Bloom’s taxonomy is explored from a historical perspective and examined for its applications in Process Education. Pacific Crest’s adaptation of Bloom’s taxonomy includes five different “levels of learner knowledge.” Each of these is defined and illustrated with key words and questions for use in designing curriculum and instructional materials.
