,◉ What are the three domains, or categories, of educational
activities that Bloom identified.
Answer: Cognitive Knowledge or Mental Skills
Affective Attitude or Emotions
Psychomotor Skills or Physical Skills
◉ Cognitive Domain.
Answer: develops six areas of intellectual skills that build
sequentially from simple to complex behaviors.Bloom arranged
them this way:
Knowledge (recall of information)
Comprehension (understanding of meaning)
Application (use of concept)
Analysis (deconstruction of concept)
Synthesis (combination of information to create meaning)
Evaluation (judgment of concept)
◉ List the evolved Bloom's Revised Taxonomy..
Answer: Remembering
Understanding
Applying
Analyzing
,Evaluating
Creating
◉ Affective Domain.
Answer: includes five areas of emotional response, categorized as
simple to complex ways of processing feelings and attitude. Bloom
arranged them this way:
Receiving (passively paying attention)
Responding (actively learning and reacting)
Valuing (attaching worth to information)
Organizing (arranging and elaborating on information)
Characterizing (valuing belief that influences behavior)
◉ Psychomotor Domain.
Answer: which focuses on physical skills, was identified, but not
defined, by Dr. Bloom. His original ideas were expanded by 1970s
educators, including Dr. Elizabeth Simpson, who developed them in
this simple-to-complex order:
Perception (sensory guiding of motor activity)
Set (feeling ready to act)
Guided Response (beginning to learn complex skills)
Mechanism (developing basic proficiency)
Complex Overt Response (performing with advanced skill)
, Adaptation (modifying movement to meet special circumstances)
Origination (creating situation-specific movements)
◉ In a course for a human resources staff, the instructor wants to
determine if learners can evaluate employees and colleagues based
on affective domain skills and abilities.
Which assessment is based on the affective domain?.
Answer: Review data on use of paid time off, vacation, and sick leave
days to determine likely employee resilience.
◉ Which domain includes knowing?.
Answer: cognitive
◉ What are the stages of backwards design.
Answer: 1. identify desired results
2. determine acceptable evidence
3. plan learning experiences and instruction
◉ Backwards Design; identify Desired Results Questions.
Answer: What should participants hear, read, view, explore or
otherwise encounter?
What knowledge and skills should participants master?
