Answer 1

Answer:

A. Bloom's Taxonomy

BLOOMS TAXONOMY

(Bloom, Engelhart, Furst, & Krathwohl, 1956)

• One of the most recognized learning theories in the field of education is the classification of educational objectives known as Bloom's Taxonomy.
• Educators often use Bloom's Taxonomy to create learning outcomes that target not only the subject matter, but also the depth of learning that students want to achieve, and to create assessments that accurately report on student progress toward these outcomes.
• Bloom's taxonomy covers three domains of learning: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor, and provides a hierarchy for each of these domains that corresponds to different levels of learning.

COGNITIVE DOMAIN

• The cognitive domain focuses on intellectual skills such as critical thinking, problem solving, and knowledge base creation.
