Document Summary
What role do questions play in the learning process: organize student thinking, assess students before, during and after learning experiences, arouse interest, help students develop insight, hel[p students develop attitudes and believes, help stimulate critical thinking. Don"t have the students put their hands up. Can test students" level by seeing what kinds of questions they ask. Blooms taxonomy: benjamin bloom -> american psychologist, classification system -> way to organize. Evaluating: this doesn"t show what is more important -> it shows if it"s "higher-order" The knowledge dimension: factual knowledge, conceptual knowledge, procedural knowledge, meta-cognitive knowledge. Bloom"s is not a pyramid (not the revised one, anyway) How do we incorporate bloom"s taxonomy into our planning: type of question: application/applying. Applying -> based on problem solving and applying information. Determine what kind of learning would occur if bloom"s taxonomy was not considered -> evaluating (making a judgment) Design a series of questions based on bloom"s taxonomy -> synthesis.
