...Bloom Taxonomy for Smart Homes All parents need their young ones to utilize critical thinking strategies. Bloom's Taxonomy has fulfilled this need. Parents can create and reinforce their young one's reasoning abilities at home. Blossom's Taxonomy is named after Benjamin Bloom, an analyst who in 1956 added to the arrangement of addressing as indicated by six levels of larger amount considering. Most if not all instructors are taught to utilize Bloom's Taxonomy in planning lesson targets for their understudies. On the other hand, most smart homes have not been taught how to utilize Bloom's Taxonomy in conversing with their youngsters. In the event that it is useful for school setups, it is clearly also useful for smart homes (Anderson, 2009). "Smart Home" is the term regularly used to characterize a home that has machines, lighting, warming, aerating and cooling, TVs, PCs, amusement sound and video frameworks, security, and camera frameworks that are fit for corresponding with each other and can be controlled remotely by a period plan, from any room in the home, and additionally remotely from any area on the planet by telephone or web (Miller, 2015). Consequently, Bloom taxonomy can easily be intergrated in a smart home setup through the use of the various devices that are available.

...Bloom's Taxonomy of Education and its effect on Nursing Education "Bloom's Taxonomy has long been the standard framework among clinical nurse educators and staff development coordinators for designing learning experiences or, at the least, has provided general guidance in development of objectives" (Horton, 2007). Bloom’s Taxonomy of educational objectives was developed by Benjamin Bloom in 1956 as a means to classify learning objectives and create learning tools for testing. There are three domains each containing subcategories that make up Bloom’s taxonomy. They are the cognitive domain, the affective domain, and psychomotor domain. Anderson and Krathwokl revised Bloom's taxonomy in 2001. While Bloom's Taxonomy has been a guideline to teach nurses, it can also be utilized as a guide for providing patient education. Each level of taxonomy builds upon the next requiring the learner to achieve a satisfactory level of each before moving forward to the next phase (Horton, 2007). A learner can be in more than one domain at a time as some levels overlap within the respective domain. Each domain and level will be discussed with examples of patient education for diabetes as an example. The cognitive domain includes six categories: remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate, and create. When a patient presents with a chronic illness, it has a huge impact on the patient and family. As teaching begins, the patient is given information that they are expected to remember for the...

...Bloom's Taxonomy Gina Hern-Martinez NUR/427 Bloom's Taxonomy Bloom’s taxonomy is a categorization of the levels of learning and thought processes. It shows the progression of learning from simple remembering of information to understanding, application, analysis, evaluation and creativity. (“How to Use Bloom’s Taxonomy”, 1999-2013). Nurses use the three domain of cognitive, affective, and psychomotor to help with nursing education and patients with chronic diseases on a daily basis. This paper will describe the research and application on how to manage patients with chronic disease and the three domain of Bloom’s Taxonomy. Bloom’s Taxonomy offers a framework for meeting nursing education goals. It is also a tool that nurses can use to educate their patients with chronic diseases, to ensure that what is thought is focused, clear, has standard of evaluation and is well documented. One of the essential goals for taking care of patients with chronic disease is to enhance nurses’ ability to improve patient care outcomes. Toward this goal, learners need to transfer learned knowledge to actual practice. Achieving effective transfer requires knowledge of thinking paradigms in relation to specific subject content. Educators can facilitate knowledge transfer by developing instructional designs that incorporate subject content and cognitive processes related to the use of the subject content. (SLACK Incorporated, 2011). Chronic diseases are diseases of long duration and...

...Bloom's Taxonomy of Education and its use in Nursing Education A primary goal of nursing continuing education is to maximize nurses' capability to advance the outcomes of patient care. This effort requires nurses to convey what they have learned into their practice. To achieve this transference, there must be a knowledge base of concepts relating to the particular issue. Teachers can assist the transfer of knowledge by using instructional strategies that incorporate the subject matter and critical thinking methods. One way of achieving this objective is to use the Revised Bloom's Taxonomy outline. This article the importance of the Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy to nursing education and how to design a lesson plan focusing on transferring knowledge (Osisek & Su, 2011). In 1956, a committee under the direction of Dr. Benjamin Bloom, produced the initial Bloom’s Taxonomy to stimulate advanced methods of rational in education. As opposed to remembering facts, it focuses on analyzing and evaluating. There are six key reasoning categories that range from modest to complex. The types are knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. The cognitive domain knowledge, involves the capacity to remember details and explicit information that serve in the development of intellectual capabilities and skills. Comprehension entails the ability to understand the meaning of theories. Application requires the student to apply the...

...Bloom's Taxonomy From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Jump to: navigation, search The Bloom's Wheel, according to the Bloom's verbs and matching assessment types. The verbs are intended to be feasible and measurable. Bloom's Taxonomy is a classification of learning objectives within education proposed in 1956 by a committee of educators chaired by Benjamin Bloom who also edited the first volume of the standard text, Taxonomy of educational objectives: the classification of educational goals[1] (referred to as simply "the Handbook" below). Although named for Bloom, the publication followed a series of conferences from 1949 to 1953, which were designed to improve communication between educators on the design of curricula and examinations.[2][3] It refers to a classification of the different objectives that educators set for students (learning objectives). Bloom's Taxonomy divides educational objectives into three "domains": Cognitive, Affective, and Psychomotor (sometimes loosely described as knowing/head, feeling/heart and doing/hands respectively). Within the domains, learning at the higher levels is dependent on having attained prerequisite knowledge and skills at lower levels.[4] A goal of Bloom's Taxonomy is to motivate educators to focus on all three domains, creating a more holistic form of education.[1] A revised version of the taxonomy was created in 2000.[5][6][7] Bloom's Taxonomy is considered to be a foundational and essential element within the education community...

There three domains of learning are cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. We will explore these learning domains and the relationship to patient education. Cognitive Domain Cognitive domain refers to knowledge and intellect. There are 6 categories that make up cognitive domain that range from simple to complex. Mastering these must occur in order for full comprehension. These are knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. These would be related to teaching a patient with a chronic disease process by giving them the knowledge to improve and then they make the needed changes to improve their state of health. The factual information would be supplied first, such as the needed medication, lifestyle change, testing, and the anticipated effects. Comprehension would include the patient’s ability to explain why the medication was needed, what improvements would happen with the lifestyle change. Application would be the patient making the needed changes and being able to modify the behavior for better...

Then identify three assessment strategies that align with the outcomes. This discussion is on chapter 7, How do we know students have learned? In the book, Teaching Today: An Introduction to Education, on Bloom’s Taxonomy. Taxonomy refers to a classification scheme. The title of the book is called, “Taxonomy of Educational Objectives: Handbook 1, Cognitive Domain.” A team of professional headed up by Benjamin Bloom developed a cognitive taxonomy which is now the most popular one used today. This is a very useful guide for preparation in instructing and assessing students. Bloom’s Taxonomy (what it is called) is arranged into six categories: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application, Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation. The three that standout the most for me is Knowledge, Comprehension and Evaluation: 1. Knowledge- being able to recall information. Are students able to bring to mind information he/ she has been taught? 2. Comprehension- being able to understand the information you receive. Can a student understand what he/she has learned or read? 3. Evaluation-judging something against a set of criteria’s. How does the student compare to his/her peers? Using these three methods can demonstrate to the teacher how successful his / her teaching skills are coming across. It will also show areas where the child needs more improvement...

The Bloom's Taxonomy of education was founded in 1956 by Benjamin Bloom and other educators from the University of Chicago Hauenstein 1998). The Bloom's Taxonomy of education is objective that help with the development in assisting nursing students and educators with tools for testing, caring for patients and outlines for us to chart. The Taxonomy structure is helpful because it help address the patients’ needs and directs the care to the patient. The Bloom's Taxonomy is conducted of three different domains which are taught and outline. The domains are cognitive, affective and psychomotor. We use these domains in nursing on a daily basis to teach, apply and evaluate effective learning by our patients. The Blooms taxonomy gives us nurses tools and guidance to assist us in teaching our patients and making sure the patients understand what they have been taught by their nurse. Cognitive domain is to remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate and create. For example in healthcare we assess our patients learning needs and abilities. Making sure our patient can remember the directions or instructions we have given them. If we give the patient medication, we explain why they are taking it and the side effects it may have, and the patient should be able to remember what has been explained to them. Nursing...

According to the lecture notes (UNV-501 Notes), as a Graduate student, you will be asked to deepen your thinking, share your experiences and challenge your mindset. The courses I attempted at the undergrad level were more of an introductory period for me. I was building the foundation for my learning of Early Childhood Education and I was responsible primarily for remembering most of the information I was learning. I do not feel like I fully examined the who, what and why’s of the concepts I was studying. My graduate studies experience will allow me to dig deeper into the different areas of Early Childhood Education. According to Blooms Taxonomy, (UNV-501 Notes), I will begin to think at a much higher level. I will put more thought and consideration into the concepts that I am learning. I would describe a graduate learning community as one consisting of staff and students sharing similar interests. Both staff and peers work together to grow and develop intellectually. This learning community participates in discussions and regular feedback is given by the instructor. The key components of a learning community would be that both sides allow each other to be heard. Participants feel comfortable enough to express themselves. A graduate learning community might be different from an undergrad learning community mainly because you have participants with a college degree and...

...Bloom's Taxonomy of Education Benjamin S. Bloom contributed to education policy and practice in the history of education. Bloom’s research directed the advancement of many educational programs and provided tools for educator to help students learn. His research on education was conducted from 1940 to 1959 and focused on the relationships between methods of instruction, educational outcomes and measurement of those outcomes. Bloom’s wrote his first book in 1950 which led to the work , the “Taxonomy of Educational Objectives.” His most distinguished contribution to teaching and learning was developing a theory for teachers to provide correct instruction for their students. The revised Bloom’s Taxonomy is used as a framework for continuing education . The purpose of continuing education is to improve nurses’ skills to provide quality patient care. Nurses need to transfer her knowledge from continuing education to everyday practice. Educators can aid the process or transferring knowledge but not to acquire instructional outline. The revised Bloom’s taxonomy incorporates instructional outline into the taxonomy plan to support transfer of knowledge and helps educators to create correct instruction. The application of the research conducted on Bloom’s taxonomy on nursing education provides guidelines to teach , organize lesson plan, assess the strategies in teaching and to evaluate the strategies of teaching. The application...

It is used in different institutions where different resources are used effectively and systematically as possible. It is used by an administrator while performing the role of a leader. Regardless of technology and development we have, still we are required to have educational planning. Characteristics of Educational planning includes primacy of planning, pervasiveness of planning,mission – oriented and future These should be present in order that we consider the planning a legitimate. It has also a process which must be followed these are statement of educational objectives, identification of various activities needed to achieve the stated educational objectives and evaluation of results. Understanding and following these steps are very important in attaining good results. Educational planning comprises three main functions: identification of objectives and strategies, proper distribution of scarce resources, educational planning aids decision making. Identifying cause of the educational problems and suggesting relevant solution is the main objective of educational planning. It requires developments and needs change in the future, and must ahead of time so proper facilities, supporting media and required resources for implementing...
