    Study Notes

    Learning Outcomes

    • The aim of learning outcomes is to guide the planning of the "scaffolding" process.

    Scaffolding

    • Scaffolding in education provides support and guidance to students as they learn new concepts or skills.
    • Scaffolding depends on the content and context.

    Taxonomies

    • Bloom's Taxonomy, Anderson's revision of Bloom's Taxonomy, and Miller's Pyramid are used to assess, especially in healthcare student training.
    • Bloom's Taxonomy and Miller's Pyramid provide a guide for assessing students' cognitive abilities, helping them progress through the learning taxonomy.

    Learning Outcomes and Scaffolding

    • Learning outcomes are included in syllabuses, lectures, planned experiential learning, and reading lists.

    Bloom's Taxonomy with Anderson's Revisions

    • Bloom's Taxonomy, with Anderson's revisions, is a hierarchical classification of cognitive skills.
    • The levels are: Remembering, Understanding, Applying, Analyzing, Evaluating, and Creating.
    • Moving from one level to the next requires higher-order thinking skills.

    Miller's Pyramid

    • Miller's Pyramid is another taxonomy that describes the different levels of clinical competency.
    • The levels are: Knows, Knows How, Shows How, Does.
    • The higher the level, the greater the complexity of the task.
