This document outlines the key points of an effective training workshop on Bloom's Revised Taxonomy. The workshop aims to teach participants how to: 1) classify verbs and types of learning based on Bloom's dimensions; 2) identify appropriate assessments for each taxonomy level; and 3) apply the taxonomy to analyze standards, objectives, and instructional effectiveness. The document provides examples of developing objectives, aligned instructional methods, and assessments across Bloom's levels. Participants are guided to create meaningful objectives and assessments by considering what learners will do and how they will demonstrate their learning.
Bloom's Workshop
- 3. A Taxonomy for Learning, Teaching, and Assessing: A Revision of Bloom’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives Lorin W. Anderson and David R. Krathwohl ISBN 0-8013-1903-X
- 4. At the end of this workshop, you will be able to: ◦ Classify performance verbs based on the Cognitive Process Dimension of Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy. ◦ Classify types of learning based on the Knowledge Dimension of Bloom’s Revised Taxonomy. ◦ Identify appropriate types of assessments for each level of Bloom’s. ◦ Identify key words in a state standard that will help you write objectives and valid assessments. ◦ Use the Bloom’s grid to identify holes in existing instruction. ◦ Analyze standards and objectives to create meaningful assessments.
- 5. Think about a lesson/training you have delivered or participated in that was particularly effective. What do you think made it so effective? Now think about one that was particularly ineffective. What do you think made it so ineffective?
- 6. Often, the lack of effectiveness of a lesson/training can be attributed to misalignment. ◦ There is too much reading ◦ The instruction isn’t relevant to my life/job ◦ There was stuff on the test I didn’t learn ◦ There were “trick” questions ◦ The training didn’t result in improved workplace performance Alignment: ◦ Need - Objectives – Instruction – Practice - Assessment
- 7. Create correct answers based on knowledge of a reading selection. Apply use of ideas and details to creation of correct answers. Evaluate information within the question to determine the best possible answer.
- 8. What do I want learners to be able to do? (the learning question) How will they show me they can do it? (the assessment question) What tools/knowledge/skills do they need to do it? (the instruction question)
- 9. Hook Objectives and Assessment introduction For each objective: ◦ Instruction/Content ◦ Guided Practice Summary Independent Practice Check for Understanding/Review Assessment Review and Generalizations to enhance transfer
- 12. Specific Measurable Acceptable to stakeholders Realistic to achieve Time-bound with a deadline

- 19. The student will learn to differentiate between rational numbers and irrational numbers. Verb: differentiate (analyze) Noun: rational numbers and irrational numbers (conceptual) Analyze, Conceptual Knowledge
- 20. OBJ
- 21. To what number system, rational or irrational, do all of these numbers belong? How do you know it is the type of number set you say it is? How could you change each number so it is an example of the other number system?
- 22. OBJ Assessment
- 23. Definitions Examples and Non-examples Diagrams

- 46. Justify with examples the relation between the number system being used (natural numbers, whole numbers, integers, rational numbers and irrational numbers) and the question of whether or not an equation has a solution in that number system. (Grades 9-10, Strand 1, Concept 1, PO 1)
- 47. Predict the outcome of an investigation based on prior evidence, probability, and/or modeling (not guessing or inferring). (High School, Strand 1, Concept 1, PO 4)
