Slide 6 Purpose of the Slide:


Let’s discuss quickly Bloom’s Taxonomy ● To present first important points
Bloom’s Taxonomy is named after the leader of a group of
academics in 1956. There are six categories to Bloom’s
about the Bloom’s Taxonomy.
Taxonomy: knowledge, comprehension, application (of the
knowledge acquired), synthesis, analysis and evaluation.
Notes to the Presenter:
● Allow participants to respond to the
questions and share their insights

Slide 7 Purpose of the Slide:
Let’s discuss quickly Bloom’s Taxonomy ● To present first important points

The Bloom taxonomy levels were later revised in 2001 as
remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing,
evaluating and creating. Notes to the Presenter:

Slide 9 Bloom’s Taxonomy (1956 and 2001) Purpose of the Slide:


● To present first important points
about the Bloom’s Taxonomy.

Notes to the Presenter:


● Say that basic ideas of both
versions of Bloom’s Taxonomy
offer some help to teachers when
Training on Higher-Order Thinking Skills PLP

thinking about lower- and higher-


order thinking. Bloom’s Taxonomy
is best when preparing questions
for students. It helps to identify
assessment items that target
different categories of quality.
● However, there are issues with
Bloom’s Taxonomy. Emphasize,
though, that this presentation does
not aim to discourage others from
using Bloom’s.

about the Bloom’s Taxonomy.
1. The suggested hierarchy, and choice of words for each level of Bloom’s
Taxonomy makes it difficult to have an exact meaning (or use the idea) with
young students.
Notes to the Presenter:
● On issue #1: In classrooms, there is

level of a question asked and the
Training on Higher-Order Thinking Skills PLP

level of a learner response given or


vice versa. You can have a
Synthesizing question but the
student could just say what the
thing is about, which is a
Remembering answer. You may
look at how good the test is –
having questions under Analyzing,
Synthesizing, or Evaluating – but
students are giving lower-order
thinking answers or not being able
to answer at all.
● On issue #2: How do you tell a
Grade 2 student to analyze
something or synthesize an
information? Concepts might be
difficult for a young learner.
● On issue #3: Sometimes,
‘knowledge’ and ‘understand’ may
also be found in higher-order
thinking. For instance, a learner
responding to the prompt “What is
Einstein’s theory of relativity” may
be recalling what that theory is but
recalling the said theory requires
high-level of thinking.
● At this point, say that many of these
issues are addressed through an
alternative approach, which is the
Structure of the Observed Learning
Outcome (SOLO) referred to as the
SOLO Taxonomy. Emphasize that
SOLO is not interested about the
question. Rather, it is interested in
the level or quality of a response –
and that gives you a real framework
of how a learner is thinking.

response across the country. SOLO


aims to provide this framework,
unlike the word ‘knowledge’ where
it could mean a lot of things or cater
to different thinking levels.
● Mention that SOLO has been used
many times already in the
Philippines. SOLO offers a
framework that was used in the
development of the three
professional standards: the
Philippine Professional Standards
for Teachers (PPST), for School
Heads (PPSSH), and for
Supervisors (PPSS). Moreover,
SOLO was used as a framework in
developing test items for the 2021
National Qualifying Examination for
School Heads (NQESH).

Slide 13 Basic SOLO Language


Purpose of the Slide:
Some new SOLO words you need to become familiar with ● To introduce the Basic SOLO

model and the five different levels.
Unistructural

Multistructural Notes to the Presenter:


Relational ● Take the presentation of these new
Extended Abstract
SOLO words slowly. Begin with the
first three words – prestructural,
Training on Higher-Order Thinking Skills PLP

unistructural, and multistructural.


Let the participants repeat the
words one-by-one.
● Ask the participants about their
prior idea on the presented SOLO
levels based on their corresponding
image.
● Remember the SOLO is about the
structure of a response. Further,
SOLO is the closest way of
describing of how the brain actually
works. Hence, ask the participants:
What does pre- mean? What does
uni- mean? What does multi-
mean? (Responses will be: before
there is structure, structure of one,
and structure of many.)
● This could be seen, for instance, in
a classroom. For prestructural, a
new teacher doesn’t know
anyone’s name at the first day of
classes. For unistructural and
multristructural, respectively, after a
reasonable amount of time, the
teacher begins to know the name of
one student and then of other
students.
● For relational, it is when eventually
the story of each and the
connection between and among
learners are being connected.
● For extended abstract (beyond) – it
is when you see something you are
not expecting from the learners in
the class.

Slide 14 Purpose of the Slide:


● To relate the Revised Bloom’s
Taxonomy and the SOLO

• Unistructural:
The learner focuses on the relevant area/problem but uses only

Remember that pre-structural is


where a response is not giving you
enough to talk about what it’s going
to be. Then in multistructural, it is
like when a teacher knows the
names of students but not who they
are together (as a class) – hence,

● At this point, participants might
already be thinking about the
responses for the question posed
earlier, “Do you think it will rain

the question shown in the screen.
Let the participants think of what
Training on Higher-Order Thinking Skills PLP

could be a prestructural response, a


unistructural response, and a
multistructural response to the
question.
● Process the responses with the
participants, observing the insights
learned from the previous slides.
● One the participants have provided
responses to each SOLO levels,
proceed to show the responses
shown in the slides.

happened last week and no rain occurred then.
Let the participants think of what
Training on Higher-Order Thinking Skills PLP

could be a relational response and


an extended abstract response to
the question.
● Process the responses with the
participants, observing the insights
learned from the previous slide.
● One the participants have provided
responses to each SOLO levels,
proceed to show the responses
shown in the slides.
● Notice, however, that if we take out
the last sentence in the relational
response (i.e., “It rained yesterday
and the weather seems very similar
now.), the response would only be
a multistructural response.
● In extended abstract, assure the
participants that this is at a very
difficult level and might only be
provided by an exceptional learner.
Similar to the note above, taking out
the last sentence (i.e., However, it
is really…) would make this a
multistructural response as well.

model.
It helps you think (as a teacher) where to move your student
next based on their response.
It even helps you think about your own thinking. Notes to the Presenter:
How is SOLO relevant to you?
To your teaching? To working with others?
● At this point, relate the SOLO levels
to LOTS and HOTS. Is pre-
structural LOTS or HOTS? Is
Training on Higher-Order Thinking Skills PLP

unistructural LOTS or HOTS? And


so on. Note that pre-, uni-, and
multi- are LOTS while relational and
extended abstract are HOTS.
● On the first paragraph, emphasize
that each level is important. You
can’t provide a multistructural
answer if you haven’t provided first
a unistructural response. You
cannot go to relational (HOTS) if
you have not provided a
multistructural response (LOTS).
Both are always important.
● On the second paragraph, teachers
will be guided on how to proceed in
the teaching process. SOLO helps
teachers to assess the quality of a
student response, different ways to
ask questions, and where
instruction should proceed to move
the student forward. If the teacher
sees the learners’ struggle at the
relational level, then this tells us
that the multistructural level must
be practiced well.
● On the third paragraph, SOLO
helps us see what responses are
lower-order thinking and higher-
order thinking. At this point, allow
the participants to relate SOLO on
their everyday task. What does a
person driving a manual
transmission car look like at a
unistructural level? What does an
elementary student playing
basketball look like at a relational
level?
● On the fourth paragraph (the
question), allow participants to
discuss this among themselves. Let
them share their responses to the
plenary.
