Bloom´s Taxonomy
Taxonomy is
a classification of learning objectives in which classify forms and levels of
learning. This classification is divided
in three domains
of learning and six categories, these things allow teacher to choose
appropriate assessment
techniques for the class.
The three domains
of learning are cognitive which involves knowledge such as recognition of
specific facts and the development of intellectual abilities and skills. Affective
it refers the progress in feelings or emotional areas like attitudes. And the psychomotor
it refers about the manual or physical skills. These kind of domains are known
as “KSA” that is mean knowledge, skills, and attitude, where students can get
new knowledge, skills, and attitude.
The six categories according to Bloom are the
knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, evaluation. I consider
that these categories are useful because through them students can demonstrate
particular skills, values, attitudes, and so on. So, teacher can adapt a good
assessment for the course.
I consider
that Bloom´s Taxonomy is a good way to apply in the classroom, to do that I have
to plan and design
appropriate instruction in order to achieve what I expect students have to do.
