Study Notes

Affective Domain Assessment

  • The affective domain is part of a system developed in 1965 for identifying, understanding, and addressing how people learn.
  • The affective domain focuses on learning objectives that emphasize feelings, tones, emotions, acceptance, and rejection.

Kratwohl's Taxonomy of the Affective Domain

  • Kratwohl's Taxonomy (1964) in the affective domain features learning objectives like interests, attitudes, appreciations, values, and emotional stances.

Taxonomy Steps

  • Receiving: Students demonstrating awareness or attention to environmental stimuli.
  • Responding: Displaying new behaviors as a result of experience.
  • Valuing: Exhibiting definite involvement and commitment to a value.
  • Organization: Integrating a new value into the overall value system, ranking it among priorities.
  • Characterization: Consistently acting in accordance with a newly valued trait.

Behavioral Words

  • Receiving: accept, attend, develop, recognize
  • Responding: complete, comply, cooperate, discuss, examine, obey, respond.
  • Valuing: defend, devote, pursue, seek
  • Organization: display, order, organize, systematize
  • Characterization: internalize, verify

Affective Topics

  • Affective topics in education include attitudes, motivation, communication styles, classroom management, learning styles, technology use, and nonverbal communication, interests, predisposition, and self-efficacy.

Importance of Affective Domain

  • Tapping into the affective domain improves the likelihood of real and authentic learning.
  • Affective desired learning competencies are often stated in instructional objectives.
  • Instructional objectives are specific, measurable, short-term, observable student behaviors that guide lessons and assessments.

Assessment Tools in the Affective Domain

  • Self-Report: A common measurement tool requiring individuals to describe their attitude/feelings towards concepts or ideas.

  • Techniques: Using keywords to evaluate understanding, asking specific questions for feedback.

  • Rating Scales: A survey question classifying respondent feedback based on particular features/products/services.

  • Types: Descriptive, comparative, numerical

  • Advantages: Help students understand learning targets, show growth and weaknesses, students may internalize the standards, ratings reveal progress.

  • Semantic Differential Scales: Assessing an individual's reaction to words, ideas, or concepts.

  • Based on a bipolar scale; evaluating contrasting adjectives.

  • Thurstone Scale: Developed by Louis Leon Thurstone, this scale measures attitude, evaluating the position of favorability on an issue.
