BLOOM’S TAXONOMY AND FACILINATING LEARNING
E- EVALUATION
WHAT IS BLOOM’S TAXONOMY?
Bloom’s taxonomy, developed by education
Researcher Benjamin Bloom is a framework
That can be used to evaluate the different
Levels of cognitive learning students achieve
As they work through the course material.
This type of evaluation helps educators target
Their lessons so that students learn in the most
Effective way possible. It also provides teachers
With an easy way to measure how much,
Students are actually learning during their in
Time class.
BENJAMIN BLOOM
Feb 21 1913-September 13 1999
An American educational psychologist
In 1935, he received a bachelor and master
Degree from Pennsylvania state university
In march 1942, he has Ph.D in education
From the university of Chicago
Bloom developed a “Taxonomy of educational
Objectives”
6 LEVEL OF BLOOM’S TAXONOMYAND ITS IMPORTANCE
BY: BENJAMIN BLOOM
1. K- KNOWLEDGE
Learner recall or recognizes info, it define names
Memorize, repeat , label, record, list and relate.
2. C- COMPREHENSION
Learner changes information into a different
Symbolic form or language.
3. AP- APPLICATION
Learner solves a problems by using the knowled-
ge and appropriate generalizations.
4. AN- ANALYSIS
Learner separates information into component
Parts.
5. S- SYNTHESIS
Learner solves a problem by putting information
Together that “requires new creative thinking”.
6.
Learners makes qualitative +quantit-
ative judgements according to set
standards.
LORIN ANDERSON
He use to revised the Bloom
taxonomy , using the verbs instead of
noun to describes learning objectives
and switched the top 2 categories,
placing Create at the higher level
than Evaluate.
6 LEVEL OF BLOOM’S TAXONOMYAND
BY: LORIN ANDERSON
1. R- REMEMBERING
Retrieving, recognizing and recalling
knowledge from long term memory.
2. U- UNDERSTANDING
Explain ideas or concepts
3. AP- APPLYING
Carrying out or using a procedure for
executing or implementing.
4. AN- ANALYZING
Breaking material into constituent parts,
Relate to one another and to an overall
structure or purpose through differenti-
ating, organizing and attributing.
5. E- EVALUATING
Making judgements based on criteria
and standard through checking and
Critiquing .
6. C- CREATING
Putting elements together to form a
Coherent or a new pattern or structure
through generating planning or
producing.
 WHY IS BLOOM’S TAXONOMY IMPOTANT? THANK YOU !
When is come to learning, not all methods are
create by equal. By providing a framework for
how information should be presented to
students, Bloom’s taxonomy can help teachers
ensure that their students are learning not just
memorizing.

APPLICATON OF BLOOM’S TAXONOMY

1. Create teaching objectives for the lessons and

Identify the levels of the taxonomy that will be
Covered.
2. Provide appropriate pre-knowledge on the topic
At hand before starting a new unit of study.
3. Engage students by using questions and activities
At all levels of the taxonomy to get them thinking
Critically about what they are learning, and not just
Remembering information as facts.
4. Make sure to provide opportunities for hand on
Hand activity or experimentation so that students
Can see how knowledge they’re gaining applies
To their own life and environment.
5. Give feedbacks through assignments and discussion
So that students know where they stand on each
Level of understanding so far.

HOW BLOOM’S TAXONOMY IS USEFUL FOR

TEACHERS?

Before creating any assessment or designing

A course using bloom’s taxonomy, the focus
should be to assess the learners capabilities
first and set appropriate learning goals acco-
rding to that. Your aim should be to create
learning experience in a way that the
students engage in all the level of bloom’s
taxonomy.
