Study Notes

Bloom’s Taxonomy

  • Bloom’s Taxonomy is a hierarchical system for classifying cognitive skills.
  • There are six levels of cognitive skills in Bloom's Taxonomy: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation.
  • The action verbs used to describe the action taken by a trainee can be used to determine the classification level.

Knowledge

  • Definition: Remembering previously learned information.
  • Action Verbs: arrange, define, describe, duplicate, identify, label, list, match, memorize, name, order, outline, recognize, relate, recall, repeat, reproduce, select, state.

Comprehension

  • Definition: Grasping the meaning of information.
  • Action Verbs: classify, convert, defend, discuss, distinguish, estimate, explain, express, extend, generalize, give example(s), identify, indicate, infer, locate, paraphrase, predict, recognize, rewrite, report, restate, review, select, summarize, translate.

Application

  • Definition: Applying knowledge to actual situations.
  • Action Verbs: apply, change, choose, compute, demonstrate, discover, dramatize, employ, illustrate, interpret, manipulate, modify, operate, practice, predict, prepare, produce, relate, schedule, show, sketch, solve, use, utilize, write.

Analysis

  • Definition: Breaking down objects or ideas into simpler parts and seeing how the parts relate and are organized.
  • Action Verbs: analyze, appraise, breakdown, calculate, categorize, classify, compare, contrast, criticize, derive, diagram, differentiate, discriminate, distinguish, examine, experiment, identify, illustrate, infer, interpret, model, outline, point out, question, relate, select, separate, subdivide, test.

Synthesis

  • Definition: Rearranging component ideas into a new whole.
  • Action Verbs: assemble, categorize, collect, combine, comply, compose, construct, create, design, develop, devise, explain, formulate, generate, plan, prepare, propose, rearrange, reconstruct, relate, reorganize, revise, rewrite, set up, summarize, synthesize, tell, write.

Evaluation

  • Definition: Making judgments based on internal evidence or external criteria.
  • Action Verbs: appraise, argue, assess, attach, choose, compare, conclude, contrast, defend, describe, discriminate, estimate, evaluate, explain, judge, justify, interpret, relate, predict, rate, select, summarize, support, value.
