2. Bloom’s Taxonomy
Blooms taxonomy- is a classification of learning objectives within education.
Keys to understanding the Taxonomy and its revisions, variations, is an understanding that the original handbook was intended only to focus on one of the three domains.
Blooms Taxonomy divides educational objects into three “Domains”: Cognitive, Affective, Mental Activity.
Learning at the higher levels is dependent on having knowledge, and skills at lower levels.
Bloom’s goal was to get educators to focus on all three domains of taxonomy.

3. Bloom’s Taxonomy
This pyramid depicts the different levels of thinking we use when learning.
Notice how each level builds on the foundation that precedes it. It is required that we learn the lower levels before we can effectively use the skills .

4. Knowledge
Knowledge- exhibit memory of previously- learned materials by recalling facts, terms, basic concepts and answers
Memory:
The way you look at things
the way you categorize
things
The way you learn and comprehend things
The theorize and structure of

5. Comprehension

Interpretation: a function that provides the
extension of symbols and strings of symbols of an object language
Extrapolation: is the process of constructing new data points outside a discrete set of known data points.

6. Application

Using information to solve problems. Transferring theoretical ideas to practical situations. Identifying connections and relationships and how they apply.
Key Words for the Application Category:
apply, construct, demonstrate, manipulate, predict, show, solve, use

7. Analysis
The level where students use their own judgment to begin analyzing the knowledge they have learned. By now they begin the underlying structure to knowledge and also are able to distinguish between fact and opinion.
Breaking down material into its component parts so that its organizational structure may be understood.
Key Words for the Analysis Category:
Analyze, compare, contrast, differentiate, distinguish, illustrate, infer, relate, diagram, troubleshoot

8. Synthesis

Synthesize, categorize, compile, compose, create, modify, organize, rearrange, reconstruct, reorganize, summarize, explain

9. Evaluation
The evaluation level is where students make judgments about the value of ideas, items, materials, and more.
This level is where students are expected to bring in all they have learned to make informed and sound evaluations of material.
