Bloom's Taxonomy:: A Guide To Thought in The Classroom

Bloom's Taxonomy is a classification of learning objectives within education. It was created in 1956 and revised in 2001 by Benjamin Bloom and colleagues. The taxonomy divides educational objectives into three domains: Cognitive, Affective, and Psychomotor. The cognitive domain involves knowledge and intellectual skills development. It contains six levels: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation. Bloom's Taxonomy provides guidance for teachers to focus on higher-order thinking in their lesson planning and assessments.
