Bloom’s Taxonomy
In 1956, Benjamin Bloom headed a group of educational psychologists who examined the way we evaluated student learning. He and his committee found that over 95% of the test questions required students to think at the lowest level, simple recall of information. Students were not expected to think, analyze, evaluate, etc. Together they developed a classification of levels of intellectual behavior important in learning.
