Blooms

Based on my past experiences, most of my teachers relied on Bloom’s Taxonomy to some extent. Just as Dr. Richard Paul suggests, many teachers attempt to foster critical thinking skills when they “ask questions that call for analysis, synthesis, and evaluation,” even though this approach, according to Dr. Paul, “is seriously misleading” (521). As pointed out in the article, simply asking these questions does not teach students critical thinking skills. I can recall several of my teachers who would request that students “compare and contrast,” “determine as a whole,” or “defend a position” on tests or homework. In fact, my American History final exam consisted of a single essay question asking students to compare and contrast a set of two historically-based

The various aspects when considering movement skill development include body control and awareness, technique, timing, anticipation and object manipulation. Body control is the ability to co-ordinate movements with precisions and balance and co-ordination are key. Whereas body awareness refers to the awareness and how conscious an individual is when performing an action. An element that can be claimed as the most important component involved in skill development is technique; as it is the method used to perform a skill and perform it well. Furthermore, anticipation is predicting what the impending actions will occur and timing is the way in which parts of a particular movement flow together. And lastly, object manipulation is the concern of

Bloom’s Taxonomy, a classification of the main levels of learning, has six stages; the stages ranging from knowledge to evaluation. As one can infer, the two stages have many differences, being on opposite sides of the chart and the terms having completely different meanings. Knowledge, being the most basic of the learning stages, is made up of mostly previously learned information which we can easily bring up in our minds. We remember things such as dates, times, words, etc. and can recall them with ease for we have them memorized. Although it is considered the lowest level of learning, knowledge is a key in getting to the highest level of learning, evaluation.

According to Beek, Peper, and Stegeman (1995), “the motor control theories provide an explanation on how the nervous system will solve the degrees of freedom problem and serve to direct movement command.” The following theories are the generalized motor program theory and the dynamical systems theory. The GMP theory “proposes that the movement plan is retrieved from memory within the central nervous system and neural instructions are sent down to the effectors via the efferent pathways.” The dynamical systems approach on the other hand, “does not propose a hierarchical control, but suggests that movements emerge through self-organization of the interaction of the body and environment.” It can be said that everybody’s “bodily movements occur in the context of the everyday functioning of people while realizing specific task goals.” As a general, yet acquired rule, “such movements involve the participation of multiple joints and limbs.” Moreover, when in action, these body parts are “coordinated and are brought into proper relation to one another as well as to the surrounding layout of surface.” The coordination of these body parts may “look relatively simple, as in picking up an object, or relatively complicated, as in juggling, performing an attacking forehand drive in table tennis or playing the drums.” To the psychomotor scientist or researcher, however, “all coordination is complex in that he or she is confronted with the challenge to explain

Rationale: This question complies with Bloom’s first level because it requires students to remember a previously learned fact from the story.

Cognitive domain involves six categories and you must build on each one for it to be effective. They are knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. Cognitive domain described by Randall (2011), “Is the recall or recognition of specific facts, procedural patterns, and concepts that serve in the development of intellectual abilities and skills” (2011). This domain is applied in respiratory education in the form of comprehending information and being able to apply and assess information. An example of this would be placing a patient on optiflow, you must have the knowledge to deliver the correct oxygen concentration and flow to meet the patient’s needs. If the patient does not tolerate or this therapy or becomes

The cognitive learning domain can be broken down into six levels which are knowledge,comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation that build upon one another. All of these levels can be expressed by a student when they are able to correctly perform tasks and explain why specific actions are taken to while doing so. An example of this would be a student that is able to apply oxygen to a patient experiencing difficulty in breathing with a history of Asthma at four liters per minute rather than fifteen liters per minute to avoid oxygen toxicity.

The three domains are each taken into account according to the age of the children, and each domain corresponds well with our teaching strategy. The physical domain focuses on their gross and fine motor skills. In 4th grade,

Physical domain (visual motor skills): Jonah has a good control over his hand and leg movement skills and is able to observe and give responses to physical actions, for instance, he directs his walking movements and thus moves without hesitation from place to place (Kearns, 2014, p.73). According to Learning Outcome 3, “Children have a strong sense of wellbeing”, Jonah is able to demonstrate spatial awareness around and through their environment confidently and safely as he was engaged in increasingly sensory-motor skills and movements (DEEWR, 2009, p.32).

In the Schema Theory, all of the information needed to make a movement decision. It is stored in the brain as a long-term memory. The schema theory challenges the open and closed loop theories. The author suggested that motor programs can be clustered and are changeable to respond to the situation. He also stated that the larger the motor program that is achieved through practice, the easier it can be adapted to new situations.

Evaluation is listed as Bloom’s Taxonomy’s highest level of learning. I was six years old the first time I was forced to re-evaluate something. It was the result of challenging something my teacher had said in class. I always liked to participate in class, but this was something different. I disagreed with something the teacher said.

The Equality act gives increased protection for everybody against discrimination. Ofstead look for diversities to be acknowledged in the classroom being they need to be actively celebrated. As a teacher I would do this by providing for different types of learners in my lesson plan and making sure that everything in my classroom and working area are accessible to every student but without making it into a big deal.

The fourth objective is when the buyer simply cannot afford the service you are trying to sell them. This objective is known as the “agree and balance technique.”

Cognitive development consists of language, memory, and attention. Cognitive functioning is a collection of abilities, attentions the focusing of mental resources on select information, short-term memory the retention of information over 30 seconds with no

In the video about the movie “Inside Out” the characters incorporated many aspects of Bloom’s Taxonomy. Blooms Taxonomy can be defined as applying learning objectives in hopes to remembering that concept. In the video the two characters recited a song to fuel the rockets of a transportation vessel in hopes of getting to the top to save Riley. But after numerous times of reciting the song, their efforts resulted in failure as they were an arm’s length away from the reachable ledge. Suddenly, one of the characters comes to realization that their presence is holding back the mission to succeed and on the way up the slope, that character gets off the cart and the other character was able to succeed.
