Bloom's Revised Taxonomy

Overview

Bloom's revised taxonomy (Anderson & Krathwohl, 2001) classifies cognitive processes into six hierarchical levels: Remember, Understand, Apply, Analyze, Evaluate, and Create. Combined with the knowledge dimension (factual, conceptual, procedural, metacognitive), it provides a two-dimensional framework for designing and assessing learning.

When to Use

Trigger conditions:

Writing learning objectives at specific cognitive levels
Aligning assessment methods with intended learning outcomes
Auditing curriculum for cognitive complexity balance

When NOT to use:

When designing scaffolded learning experiences (use constructivism / ZPD)
When managing cognitive load in instructional design (use cognitive load theory)
When integrating technology into teaching (use TPACK framework)
