Bloom’s taxonomy

      What I learned about bloom’s taxonomy is that it was created in order to promote a higher way of thinking and analyzing learning. It is more focused on the way teachers ask questions. For example we have different competences that are demonstrated in specific skills.

-          Knowledge: observation and recall of information

-          Comprehension: understanding information

-          Application: use of information

-          Analysis: identification of components

-          Synthesis: use old ideas to create new ones

-          Evaluation: compare and discriminate between ideas

As a conclusion, I can say that it is really important the way we ask questions because sometimes those questions are not clear and do not have a specific objective. Given that, teachers need to know the level of their students at the moment of asking something.
