...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.

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...

...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...

...Blooms Research Tiffany Morais 08/26/2014 Nur/427 Instructor-Amy Highland Bloom's Research We as nurses use the Bloom's Taxonomy of education daily. 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...

...required to do more analyzation, research and evaluation to get me thinking on a much broader spectrum. 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...

...REACTION PAPER IN EDUCATIONAL PLANNING Educational planning is the process of setting out in advance, strategies, policies, procedures, programs and standards through which an educational objective (or set of objectives) can be achieved. 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...

...Bloom’s Taxonomy “Assessment is an essential part of the teaching-learning process. Students' learning can be measured by different procedures. Despite a significant increase in test procedures, numerous issues surrounding testing of comprehension remain unresolved (Veeravagu, Muthusamy, & Marimuthu, 2010).” “In Bloom’s system, levels of material mastery are assessed behaviorally at the knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis and evaluation levels (Crone-Todd & Pear, 2001).” Understanding which level the students are engaged on and what level the professor would like them to be engaged at within the class can assist in determining what type of questions, test or assessments should be asked to assist in the students’ learning and retention methods. The topics that will be reviewed in this paper are the definition and importance of Bloom’s Taxonomy, usage of this system within the graduate program, and the types of questions that should be utilized in preparation for the assignments. The Definition and Importance of Bloom’s Taxonomy According to UW Teaching Academy, Benjamin Bloom’s research team formed as a result of a discussion during the 1946 Convention of the American Psychological Association to develop a method of classification for thinking behaviors that were believed to be important in the learning process. This classification for thinking behaviors later became know as Bloom’s Taxonomy. “Bloom's Taxonomy is a multi-tiered model of classifying...

...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 of Education and Its Use in Nursing Education Teresa Miller NUR/427 April 4, 2014 Kathy Cavanaugh RN, MSN, FNP, CCTC Bloom's Taxonomy of Education and Its Use in Nursing Education Bloom’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives was originated by a group of educational psychologists lead by Benjamin Bloom and published in 1956. According to Larkin and Burton (2008), Bloom’s Taxonomy is a classification system used by educators to classify learning objectives and skills for students. Bloom’s Taxonomy is used extensively by health educators and nurses to structure lesson plans and outcome measurement because it moves learners from basic to higher levels of cognitive function (Larkin and Burton, 2008). In 2001, Bloom’s Taxonomy was revised by Anderson and Krathwohl, the Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy offers a hierarchy with three domains of learning: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor (Larkin and Burton, 2008). This classification system is utilized by nurses for patient education and is particularly effective for adult learners. Adult learners prefer education that is relevant, practical and organized around problems and tasks that can be applied to real-life (Su and Osisek, 2011). Therefore, this system is also relevant for nursing education because it allows the nurse to plan education that is applicable to the problem, clear, easily understood, and well documented with evaluation standards. The Revised Taxonomy works very well with continuing education...

...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...
