Bloom's Taxonomy* Benjamin Bloom created this taxonomy for categorizing level of abstraction of questions that commonly occur in education settings. The taxonomy provides a useful structure in which to categorize test questions, since professors will characteristically ask questions within particular levels, and if you can determine the levels of questions that will appear on your exams, you will be able to study using appropriate strategies. Competence Skills Demonstrated Knowledge observation and recall of information knowledge of dates, events, places knowledge of major ideas mastery of subject matter Question Cues: list, define, tell, describe, identify, show, label, collect, examine, tabulate, quote, name, who, when, where, etc. Comprehension understanding information grasp meaning translate knowledge into new context interpret facts, compare, contrast order, group, infer causes predict consequences Question Cues: summarize, describe, interpret, contrast, predict, associate, distinguish, estimate, differentiate, discuss, extend Application use information use methods, concepts, theories in new situations

Bloom's Revised Taxonomy "Think left and think right and think low and think high. Oh, the thinks you can think up if only you try!" (Theodor Seuss Geisel) Bloom's Revised Taxonomy of cognitive objectives is one of the best ways to differentiate the curriculum to meet the needs of your students. Because of its six levels of thinking, Bloom's Revised Taxonomy can provide a framework for planning units that incorporate low to high-level thinking activities. Therefore, when we use Bloom's Revised Taxonomy as a planning framework we can plan for student thinking at all levels. Bloom's Revised Taxonomy PowerPoint Presentation (378 KB) An introduction to Bloom's Revised Taxonomy including a very thorough breakdown of each of the six levels of the revised taxonomy. Includes a list of useful print and internet resources. This presentation would be useful to use in a professional development session to introduce Bloom's Revised Taxonomy to teachers. Bloom's Revised Taxonomy One Page Poster (102 KB) This one page colour poster introduces the revised taxonomy- it provides the headings and brief explanation for each level of the taxonomy. This poster is best printed in colour and laminated to display in the classroom for easy reference.

46. Taxonomy Of Educational Objectives The questions and examples were added by Tom Allen to make the taxonomy more useful for beginning teachers as a tool to facilitate appropriate questioning. http://www.humboldt.edu/~tha1/bloomtax.html

THE TAXONOMY OF EDUCATIONAL OBJECTIVES This is a revised version of Benjamin Bloom's work with the addition of the Psychomotor Domain as developed by Anita Harrow [1972]. Dr. Bloom's intent was to develop a classification framework for writing educational objectives. The questions and examples were added by Tom Allen to make the Taxonomy more useful for beginning teachers as a tool to facilitate appropriate questioning. COGNITIVE DOMAIN: Knowledge: recognize or recall information. Q: What is the capital of Maine? Who wrote "Hamlet?" Words typically used: define, recall, recognize, remember, who, what, where, when. Comprehension: demonstrate that the student has sufficient understanding to organize and arrange material mentally. Q: What do you think Hamlet meant when he said, "to be or not to be, that is the question?" (Rosenshine, among others, would argue that one of the best ways to teach is to teach pupils how to ask their own questions about the topic under consideration.) Words typically used: describe, compare, contrast, rephrase, put in your own words, explain the main idea.

Site map About References Cultural Considerations in Learning ... Learning and teaching system [Bloom's taxonomy] misrepresentation, myths and misleading ideas Bloom’s Taxonomy "Taxonomy” simply means “classification”, so the well-known taxonomy of learning objectives is an attempt (within the behavioural paradigm) to classify forms and levels of learning. It identifies three “domains” of learning (see below), each of which is organised as a series of levels or pre-requisites. It is suggested that one cannot effectively — or ought not try to — address higher levels until those below them have been covered (it is thus effectively serial in structure). As well as providing a basic sequential model for dealing with topics in the curriculum, it also suggests a way of categorising levels of learning, in terms of the expected ceiling for a given programme. Thus in the Cognitive domain, training for technicians may cover knowledge, comprehension

TreeView Tree drawing software for Apple Macintosh and Windows (and now Linux and Unix TreeView is a simple program for displaying phylogenies on Apple Macintosh and Windows PCs. It has the following features: runs on both the Apple Macintosh and Windows Pcs, using almost identical interfaces reads many different tree file formats (including NEXUS, PHYLIP, Hennig86, NONA, MEGA, and ClustalW/X) supports standard the TrueType and Postscript fonts available on Macs and PCs supports native graphics file format (PICT on Macintosh, Windows metafile on Windows) for copying pictures into other applications, and for saving graphics files print preview can print multiple trees per page, and one tree over more than one page has drag-and-drop facility for easy opeing of files Web-based online help tree editor TreeView provides a simple way to view the contents of a NEXUS, PHYLIP, Hennig86, Clustal, or other format tree file. While PAUP and MacClade have excellent tree printing facilities, there may be times you just want to view the trees without having to load the data set they were generated from. The PHYLIP package contains tree drawing programs which offer a greater variety of trees than TreeView, but are somewhat clumsy to use. The forthcoming PAUP* for Windows does not have a graphical interface, hence TreeView allows you to create publication quality trees from PAUP files, either directly, or by generating graphics files for editing by other programs.

Linking Florida's Natural Heritage Taxonomy: What's In a Name? Have you ever thought about why we name things at all? If you have, you probably realized that names are very important for communicating information to others. If we all created our own names for plants or animals, we'd have no clue what anyone else was talking about. What about rolly-poly bugs? People in others areas may think of them as pill bugs or sow bugs. In the United States, we call both black vultures and turkey vultures buzzards. But in the United Kingdom, what they call buzzards are all the broad-winged hawks. Inconsistencies like these led to the creation of a system of naming things that allows scientists all over the world to communicate more precisely. Image courtesy of the Linnean Society of London Swedish Naturalist Carl Linnaeus, 1707-1778 A man named Linnaeus came up with this system of describing and naming new species. Before Linnaeus' time, multiple common names weren't the only problem. Biologists described species with long, unwieldy Latin names. For example, the common wild briar rose was called Rosa sylvestris inodora seu canina by some and Rosa sylvestris alba cum rubore, folio glabro

Reports APPLYING ASSESSMENT STRATEGIES IN PSYCHOLOGY Using the New Bloom's Taxonomy to Design Meaningful Learning Assessments YAAWYNNN. Oh no, that dreaded signal that students give to let you know they aren't engaged in the learning that you have planned. To reduce disengagement, teachers move beyond lecture in search of new ways to engage students in the learning process. Engaging students requires mechanisms that increase class participation and facilitate higher-order learning. The purpose of this segment is to provide teachers with some tools for promoting higher-order learning. Developing higher-order thinking skills in students is not an easy task. Historically, teachers have looked to Bloom's Taxonomy (1956) for assistance. Bloom's model divided thinking skills into lower-order and higher-order knowledge. The early taxonomy began with knowledge, understanding, and application as lower level skills and cast higher level skills as analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Bloom's Taxonomy Revisited Although Bloom's Taxonomy proved useful to teachers and students alike, recent decades gave rise to numerous criticisms, implying that the model was out of date. These criticisms included concerns with setting applicability, contemporary language, and process conceptualization. More recently, Anderson and Krathwohl (2001) have adapted Bloom's model to fit the needs of today's classroom by employing more outcome-oriented language, workable objectives, and changing nouns to active verbs (see "stairs" below).

Part of the challenge of devising effective VoIP security protections requires identifying these threats in the first place. The overall goal of this project is to help ground VoIP security awareness in the industry, press, and general public. A core benefit of this Threat Taxonomy is the actual qualification of risks. While some early press accounts have focused on the potential for VoIP spam and VoIP call hijacking, the consensus of learning from this project is that there are many other threats inherited from traditional data networks (worms, DDoS, etc.) that are more likely to occur today. Next steps in the framework include documenting advanced attacks that are comprised of several basic threats, incorporating a risk metric guide, and developing a matrix that connects to other VOIPSA projects (Security Requirements, Best Practices, Testing, etc.).

The original authors are no longer at the University of Leeds, and the former Centre for Human Biology became the School of Biomedical Sciences which is now part of the Faculty of Biological Sciences Primate Taxonomy Dr. Bill Sellers Introduction In the last lecture I introduced the general ideas of evolution and taxonomy. Now it's time to look at how this relates to the evolution of humans. (# slide of geological time scale) To some extent, factors shaping human evolution started back at the creation of the universe. Certainly, the origin of the earth is important, as is the first life appearing on it. From there, we have the origin of complex single celled organisms (protozoa), then multi-celled organisms (metazoa), animals with backbones (vertebrates), first land vertebrates, and even mammals. Traditionally, however, we limit the study of human evolution to the study of just our own mammalian order: that of the primates (order primata The aim of this lecture is to discuss what a primate is, and to introduce you to the range of primates present in the world today. I will show you some pictures, but I don't expect you to remember all the names, and you certainly won't be asked to identify any of these animals in an exam, but an appreciation of the wide variation in these animals is essential for when we come on to discuss how they, and consequently how we might have evolved.
