Blooms Taxonomy: This model is proposed in 1956 and named after Benjamin Bloom, an educational psychologist at the University of Chicago. This is actually a hierarchy model to classify the teaching and instructional objectives into a specific level of complexity
According to Bloom's taxonomy of knowledge, there are three major domains of learning:
- Cognitive domain
- Affective domain
- Psychomotor domain
Bloom's Taxonomy of cognitive skills:
-
Knowledge: Identifying the steps on how to solve, factor, evaluate, etc.
- Understanding: describe what we are looking for and why – zeros, vertex, intersection, etc.
-
Application: Solve an equation or draw a graph
-
Analyze: Compare, contrast and classify
-
Evaluation: Explain and defend your solution
Thus, it is concluded that Knowledge, Understanding, Application, and Evaluation is the correct order of teaching Mathematics.
