4. Affective -values, attitudes Teacher Julie asked her students about the importance
of knowing how to form plural nouns. One of her
pupils answered, “It's important to learn how to
form plural nouns because in this world, there is
never a single thing of something.” Now they can
easily apply the rules of plural form whenever
they will construct or will tell a noun that are two
or more.
1. Were the lessons focused on information/ cognitive domain only or mental procedures only or
psychomotor procedures/physical skills only? Or were the lessons combinations of two or three?
Explain your answer.
The focus of the lessons is on the three key learning domains. The teacher used a variety of
techniques to get the students' attention. The teachers discussed the three domains of cognition and how
they presented the subject matter to the students. After the teachers finished the lesson, they asked the
pupils a question in the affective domain. They inquired about the significance or function of the purpose
for which the students engaged in the topic. There are a few exercises that will support the students'
learning that is followed in support of the psychomotor domains. All the domain are evident in their
presentation.
2. Were the lessons focused on cognitive tent only or psychomotor content only or affective content
only? Or were the lessons combinations of two or three? Explain your answer.
The lecture contains three domains, one of which is the cognitive element, in which she
introduces the subject matter. Affective domains are where the teacher inquires about the significance or
function of something and how they would impart it in their real-life settings, which is also incorporated
in the lesson plan. The teacher also demonstrates the psychomotor component by involving the students
in an exercise in which they can apply their knowledge to specific activities.
3. What was the effect on learning when teaching was focused on only one domain?
Because three domains affect a learner's cognitive skills, a lesson should include all three
domains of learning. When teaching is solely focused on one domain, there is a possibility that students
will not understand the lesson and that all stages of learning will be missed. As a result, the students are
unable to develop the higher-order thinking skills required to continue their schooling. It would also make
instruction less effective and meaningful. In summary, it will be a "boring" class for pupils, and the worst
case scenario is that they will not pay attention at all.
4. Is it really possible to teach only in one domain like affective only or cognitive only or
psychomotor only? Or based on Kendall's and Marzano's taxonomy, information only or mental
procedures only or psychomotor procedures only? Explain your answer.
Yes, however the concept was not as effective as it could have been in terms of allowing pupils to
forget about the subject matter because there is a link between all of the domains that pass through each
learner's mind. Before beginning the lesson, a teacher must follow a set of guidelines or procedures.
Remember the guiding principles for lesson objectives in our which is the guiding star of the teacher in
FIELD STUDY 2 – EXPERIENCING THE TEACHING LEARNING PROCESS
her lesson in Episode 2, it is mentioned that "for meaningful teaching and learning, lesson objectives must
be integrated with three domains" (cognitive, psychomotor and affective). The three-domain lesson will
be effective, meaningful, and relevant in improving a learner's thinking skills. Every domain played an
important part in preparing students for each step of their education and their lives. If only one area is
covered in a single lesson, a child's entire skill set may be compromised.
5. Do Kendall's and Marzano'a knowledge taxonomy and Bloom's taxonomy of learning activities
contradict each other? Explain your answer.
No. Bloom's and Marzano's have a lot in common. Their language is nearly identical. Bloom
employs nouns to demonstrate levels of learning, whereas Marzano uses verb forms. The categories of
Marzano do not build on one another.- Bloom's Taxonomy was designed as a framework for instructors to
employ in order to focus on higher-order thinking. Marzano's theory is more research-based, and it can
assist teachers in enhancing their students' thinking skills. These taxonomies do certainly aid in the
development of high-quality learners. They differ in certain ways, but when I examine them more closely,
I see that they share the purpose of ensuring that the child learns throughout all domains.
My Reflections/Insights
Based on your observations in class and on your understanding of the domains of knowledge and learning
activities from Bloom, Kendall and Marzano, how can you make your teaching-learning activity more
meaningful and more relevant? Is lesson more relevant when you teach only in the cognitive or when you
teach in the cognitive domain combined with the affective or psychomotor combined with the affective?
The three domains have been quite helpful to me as a potential teacher in making classes relevant
and meaningful. These areas will ensure my student's mental capacity to learn and develop a solid
performance. I can readily tell if students are learning from the class based on these three domains. It
improves their ability to accomplish tasks in class.
Refer to the K to 12 Curriculum Guide. Based on the competencies, formulate SMART lesson
objectives/intended learning outcomes:

Kendall's and Marzano's different levels of processing information, mental and psychomotor
procedures
Each level of processing can operate within each of the three domains - information, mental
procedures, psychomotor procedures.
The first four levels of processing are cognitive, beginning with "Retrieval" the least complex,
then moving upward with increasing complexity through "Comprehension", "Analysis" and "Knowledge
Utilization".

The sixth level of processing, the Self System, involves the learner's examination of the
importance of the learning task and his/her self-efficacy. It also involves the learner's emotional response
to the learning task and his/her motivation regarding it.

The teacher asked them if have they’ve been to a zoo and what
kind of animals they usually see in a zoo.
Students find out the positive side or the results if people are
taking care of animals in a zoo and negative results if people
don’t have the care for animals in a zoo.
The pupils are able to compare and contrast the causes and
effects of taking care of animals, particularly those that are
endangered or threatened with extinction.

6. Were all Bloom's levels of processing information demonstrated by the learners in class? Why or
why not?
Yes, all of this is demonstrated by the students in class, as I observed the teacher using it as a
medium of instruction to help her students learn.
7. Which levels of processing cognitive information in Bloom's taxonomy was most displayed? least
demonstrated? Give proofs.
The most displayed level of processing information was applying. teacher Julie emphasized to her
learners the insights or the moral lesson of the story they read. She asked them on how these life lessons
from the story be applied to their real life. In that way, teacher Julie can help her learners form the very
core of their being and at an early age, they can build their positive character.
8. Were all of Kendall's and Marzano's levels of processing of information, mental and physical
procedures demonstrated by the learners in class? Why or why not?
Not all, particularly at the metacognitive and self-system levels of information processing. They
were not well observed. Although the teacher had a role in monitoring the class and assisting them in
comprehending the lesson, we cannot ensure that the learning is retained by the pupils unless and until
there is an assessment to determine whether to continue with the behavior or engage in a new activity.
9. Which levels of Kendall's and Marzano's processing information was most demonstrated? least
demonstrated? Give proof.
Retrieval was the most evident process, since all of the classes I watched engaged in lesson recall.
The teacher will always ask about their topic discussion last meeting at the start of class. The least
displayed were metacognitive and self-system abilities, which are frequently overlooked in classrooms.
10. Are Bloom's cognitive taxonomy of learning activities (cognitive, affective and psychomotor)
very different from the new taxonomy of Kendall and Marzane (informative, metacognitive
procedures and psychomotor)? Explain your answer.
No. Bloom's and Marzano's are quite close. Their language is nearly same. Bloom's hierarchy of
learning use nouns, whereas Marzano's hierarchy of learning employs verb forms. Marzano's categories
FIELD STUDY 2 – EXPERIENCING THE TEACHING LEARNING PROCESS
are self-contained. When Bloom's theory was developed, it was intended to provide teachers with a
framework for focusing on higher order thinking. Marzano's approach is more research-based and aims to
assist teachers in improving their students' thinking.
My Reflections/Insights
Analysing the levels of processing that were demonstrated by students in the classes that you
observed, what conclusion can you draw regarding the level of processing of information that takes place
in schools? (Are all the higher levels of processing information done in classrooms? Or are classrooms
limited mostly to the lower levels of information processing such as remembering or retrieval?)
Bloom's hierarchy of processing was primarily discussed in class. I can tell that the teacher is
adjusting her activities to the student's processing level. Additionally, she has the capacity to encourage
and focus the learners' attention on the class. Additionally, I can see that she is making a concerted effort
to keep the lesson interesting and enjoyable. I discovered that, based on my observations, the majority of
teachers in classes focus exclusively on the lower stages of information processing, such as remembering
and comprehension. There are a handful who truly exerted effort to impose learning on students, but none
who exerted sufficient effort to enable students to complete all assigned tasks.
Write your reflections on the level of information processing among students in class. Does
teacher contribute to the level of processing that students do in school? If students are engaged only in
low level information processing, can teacher be blamed for such?
Yes, teachers are to blame since they are the key influencers in the classroom and the degree of
information processing must begin there because they are the primary source of knowledge. The teacher
encourages the students to think about what they do at home and define it as a positively or negatively
act. She offered a variety of scenarios that are extremely familiar to all students and are tailored to their
cognitive abilities. Creating is the least utilized stage of cognitive information processing. She's more of a
remembering type of person. Regarding Kendall and Marzano's levels of information processing, I
believe the majority of it is given and used in class. The teacher is assisting the students in making
judgments and has offered scenarios that are quite typical in each student's daily life. When children are
engaged in what they are doing and have a say in what they are learning, they learn more effectively.
Teachers can provide students more control over their education and a higher degree of information
processing by employing these varied tactics.
