What is Bloom’s Taxonomy?
Benjamin Bloom created this taxonomy for categorizing level of abstraction of questions that commonly occur in educational settings.
What does that mean? What is “abstraction”?
Bloom’s Taxonomy
In other words, a way to prioritize the type of questions being asked as to what knowledge, attitude or skill is required on the part of the responder to answer the question.
Ideas are abstract but they need to be measured/assessed in a concrete manner.
