I mentioned Bloom´s Taxonomy yesterday and though to post more information on it. Please take a good look at a tool that can be of great help for you as a future teacher.
BLOOM´S TAXONOMY
From www.fractuslearning.com |
Over sixty years ago, Benjamin Bloom directed the committee of educators responsible for delivering what we all know today as BLOOM´S TAXONOMY, in an effort to promote higher forms of thinking in education. The idea was to make students analyze and evaluate information rather than just remembering facts.
This classification is a key foundation to many modern teaching philosophies and learning methodologies. Bloom´s Taxonomy gives a theoretical progression to help classify learning objectives
For a teacher, Bloom´s Taxonomy is an excellent tool to write learning objectives. Watch this video to learn more about the six levels of the taxonomy and how to write a learning objective.
