Today I learned about Bloom’s taxonomy as presented in How to Teach Anything: Break Down Complex Topics and Explain with Clarity, While Keeping Engagement and Motivation:
- Remember
- Retrieving, recognizing, and recalling relevant knowledge from longāterm memory.
- Understand
- Constructing meaning from oral, written, and graphic messages through interpreting, exemplifying, classifying, summarizing, inferring, comparing, and explaining.
- Apply
- Carrying out or using a procedure for executing or implementing.
- Analyze
- Breaking material into constituent parts and determining how the parts relate to one another and to an overall structure or purpose through differentiating, organizing, and attributing.
- Evaluate
- Making judgments based on criteria and standards through checking and critiquing.
- Create
- Putting elements together to form a coherent or functional whole; reorganizing elements into a new pattern or structure through generating, planning, or producing.
