In educational psychology, learning is often categorized into three main domains, as proposed by Benjamin Bloom and his collaborators:
Cognitive Domain: This domain deals with knowledge, intellect, and the development of mental skills. It includes remembering, understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating, and creating information.
Psychomotor Domain: This domain focuses on physical movement, coordination, and the development of motor skills. Examples include learning to ride a bicycle, playing a musical instrument, or performing surgery.
Affective Domain: This domain pertains to emotions, attitudes, values, and feelings. It involves the development of receptiveness, responsiveness, valuing, organization, and characterization of values.
