Bloom's Taxonomy & E-Learning

Created applying Tagxedo to 
Bloom's Taxonomy of Learning Domains


 
Linking Bloom's taxonomy to E-Learning

An active academic of Bloom’s Taxonomy and linking the learning to ICT application, is Andrew Churches. He is the author of Bloom’s Digital Taxonomy, which accounts for the new learning opportunities available due to advances in technology including web 2.0 technologies. After studying his options for each of the thinking skills, I created the following document which links them to software or websites that may achieve the intended higher order thinking.
