What is Bloom’s Taxonomy?

Benjamin Bloom (1931–1999) was an American educational psychologist. By focusing on the mastery of learning, his ideas developed into what is knownas Bloom’s Taxonomy.

 Bloom’s Taxonomy is a hierarchy of learning objectives. It’s a hierarchy of mental, emotional and practical skills that can help you prompt deeper thinking in the learners.

 Its original purpose was to give educators a common language to talk about curriculum design and assessment. Today, it’s used by teachers all around the world.

 Bloom’s Taxonomy consists of three domains that reflect the types of learning we all do. Each domain has different levels of learning, ordered from the simplest to the most complex and associated with relevant action verbs.
