As educators move forward in the digital world, they struggle with where to place new technology tasks within this long-standing hierarchal guide to teaching and learning. This presentation will demonstrate Churches’ work in mapping Bloom's Taxonomy to digital tools for faculty to integrate digital tools for learning and teaching.
Since its publication in 1956, Bloom’s Taxonomy has been a foundation of most modern education systems. While the overarching principles have remained the same, changes in understanding, experience, and technology have seen the Taxonomy take on a number of different forms, for a number of different purposes and applications. As educators move forward in the digital world, many of us struggle with where to place new technology tasks within this long-standing hierarchal guide to teaching and learning. This presentation will demonstrate Andrew Churches’, author of The 21st Century Fluency Collection, work in mapping Bloom's Taxonomy to digital tools, so that faculty can get some ideas about how to use digital tools for learning and teaching.
Learning Outcomes:
- Participants will differentiate between Bloom’s 1950’s Taxonomy, Bloom’s 2001 Revised Taxonomy to Bloom’s 2009 Digital Taxonomy.
- Participants will examine various digital tools available at their institutions.
- Participants will create a list of various digital learning activities to integrate into their coursework to enhance student learning.
