What do we want our students to learn from an experience? This is the central question that underpins learning objectives. Learning objectives attempt to describe the manifestations of learning that we would like to see by the end of a learning experience (e.g. a course or a learning module). Traditionally areas of knowledge that are the target of learning objectives are described as domains. Typically knowledge is described as cognitive, affective, or psychomotor and there are other domains such as interpersonal1-4. The domain describes the nature of the learning. Has the student learned a new cognitive process, or learned to care about something new? The organization of learning into these domains helps us to make sense of the types of knowledge that our students are learning. A domain is like a country, it defines a piece of the knowledge landscape. A taxonomy of learning attempts to map that landscape. It creates categories that describe ways of knowing. Just as a map describes the landscape using categories (e.g. roads, parks, towns), a taxonomy categorizes ways of knowing so that we can better define the manifestation of learning that we want our students to achieve. Most taxonomies are meant to be thorough maps of one domain. For example Bloom’s taxonomy describes ways of knowing within the cognitive process domain1. It attempts to categorize all of the different levels of learning in this domain. When Anderson and Krathwohl later updated Bloom’s taxonomy they added a second dimension, the knowledge dimension, which breaks apart the domain into 4 parts: factual knowledge, conceptual knowledge, procedural knowledge, and metacognitive knowledge5. Their taxonomy applies the same levels of learning (i.e. cognitive processes) to each of these four pieces of the domain. Bloom’s (or Anderson’s) do not describe everything that a student should learn. They are only meant to describe one type of learning: cognitive process. Other taxonomies map other domains and some taxonomies cut across domains.

The aim of this study is to taxonomically analyse the 9th grade Turkish chemistry curriculum. A descriptive analysis method is used throughout the study. The document analysis is applied as a method to construct the codes and themes to reflect the results of the study. The results of the study exhibit that most of learning outcomes of the 9th grade chemistry curriculum focus on understand level (61%), and other levels of outcomes are remember (16%), apply (5%), analyse (13%), evaluate (0%) and create (5%). In addition, learning outcomes in the distribution of the cognitive domain are conceptual knowledge (79%), factual knowledge (16%), metacognitive knowledge (5%) and procedural knowledge (0%). The analysis of the textbook clearly shows that majority of the outcomes of units are based on conceptual knowledge and factual knowledge in particular units; however, the textbook has no learning outcomes as procedural and metacognitive in some units such as second, third and fourth units.

Online assignments play an important role in online teaching and learning, and the revised Bloom's Taxonomy has been proved to be valuable for real teaching and learning. But few research efforts are put into combining online assignment design with the revised Bloom's Taxonomy. This chapter is to propose a model of designing online assignments based on the revised Bloom's Taxonomy, which can be used as a guide for online instructor to design a comprehensive online assignment with helping the students to master the four types of knowledge–factual knowledge, conceptual knowledge, procedural knowledge and metacognitive knowledge–and at the same time help the students develop the six-stage cognitive process.

Abstract: This study was conducted to investigate the coverage of Revised Bloom’s taxonomy in the English Standar Kompetensi (SK), Kompetensi Dasar (KD) and the English test items of Ujian Nasional for SMA. Content analysis method was chosen as the research design for this study. The writer analyzed the data by categorizing the verbs and the nouns of the data in relation to the categories and dimension of Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy. The results of this study revealed that 53% of SKs and KDs cover Understand category and the rest cover Analyze category. All of the SKs and KDs cover conceptual knowledge and other knowledge dimensions are not covered. Moreover, the coverage of Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy in English test items of Ujian Nasional for SMA is not aligned with the coverage of Revised Bloom’s Taxonomy in English SK and KD. The SKs and KDs only cover Remember, Understand, Apply and Analyze categories while the test items were associated with Remember, Understand, Apply, Analyze, and Evaluate categories. More than 90% of English test items of Ujian Nasional for SMA only covered low order of cognitive categories (Remember, Understand, and Apply). Most of the test items covered factual knowledge and the rest of them covered conceptual knowledge and none of them covered procedural and metacognitive knowledge.

This study aimed to analyze the questions of physics book for the twelfth grade for science and industry branch in Jordan in light of bloom’s revised taxonomy. Which consisted of (94) major questions, includes (261) sub-questions, where the sub-question was considered a unit of analysis. The researcher adopted the intentional method in selecting the sample and used the descriptive analytical approach to conduct the study, where he used a card to analyze the levels of cognitive levels according to the Bloom’s taxonomy. The searcher used percentages and the arithmetic mean of the statistical treatment, the results showed that the physics book questions focused on two dimensions of the knowledge (factual knowledge (25%) & conceptual knowledge (75%)). but in the cognitive process dimensions focused on the lowest thinking levels (25- 43 %), where the level of (apply) came in the first place (43%), and (remember)in the second (30%), and (understand)in the third (25%). While it showed weakness in the focus on the higher thinking levels, the level of (analyze) got (2%), and there were no levels of evaluating and creating levels. The study recommended that the questions should be distributed over all of the knowledge dimensions, especially (procedural knowledge & creative knowledge), also should focus on the higher thinking levels, and trains the authors of the questions in preparing and formulating the questions in a manner consistent with cognitive levels of Bloom's revised classification.

Abstrak: Ilmu kimia sebagai ilmu yang berdasarkan pada  penelitian (induktif), yang seharusnya mampu menyajikan soal yang menantang dan tersebar dalam enam level kognitif, hanya saja kondisi sebenarnya soal-soal kimia masih dibuat tradisional dengan berada pada level kognitif rendah. Soal olimpiade sebagai ajang kompetisi nasional siswa-siswa berprestasi di Indonesia pun belum diketahui level kognitif yang terkandung di dalamnya. Maka tujuan penelitian ini yakni, mendeskripsikan komposisi penyebaran soal terhadap tabel Taksonomi Bloom revisi, mendeskripsikan perbandingan soal OSN dan IChO (International Chemistry Olympiad) pada materi yang sama, dan  memetakan soal-soal tersebut terhadap standar kompetensi dan kompetensi dasar SMA/MA. Hasil analisis menunjukkan bahwa pada tahun 2012 tersebar pada prosedural-mengaplikasikan dan konseptual-memahami. Pada tahun 2013 tersebar pada dimensi prosedural-mengaplikasikan dan faktual-memahami. Berdasarkan konten materi dalam satu soal IChO  menuntut siswa dapat menemukan keterkaitan suatu materi dengan materi lainnya guna menyelesaikan soal tersebut sedangkan OSN tidak, tetapi keduanya  memiliki dimensi pengetahuan dan dimensi proses kognitif yang tidak terlalu berbeda yakni pada lingkup prosedural-mengaplikasikan dan prosedural-menganalisis. Hasil pemetaan terhadap SK-KD SMA/MA menunjukkan sebesar setengah dari jumlah ksesluruhan soal dapat dipetakan. Adanya analisis ini diharapkan menjadi masukan bagi guru untuk memberikan penguatan konsep kimia pada pembelajaran, agar siswa mampu mengerjakan berbagai macam soal, salah satunya soal OSN. Penelitian ini masih terbatas pada tahun 2012 dan 2013, sehingga dapat dikembangkan analisis untuk tahun-tahun lainnya. Kata-kata Kunci : Analisis, Taksonomi Bloom revisi, Dimensi Pengetahuan, Dimensi Proses Kognitif Abstract: Chemistry as a science that is based on research (inductive), which is supposed to be able to present a challenging problem and scattered in six cognitive levels, it's just that the actual conditions of chemical problems are still made traditionally with low cognitive level. Olympics as a matter of national competition top students in Indonesia is not yet known cognitive level contained therein. So the purpose of this study, describing the composition of matter of the spread of the revised Bloom's Taxonomy tables, describing the comparison about OSN and IChO (International Chemistry Olympiad) on the same material, and to map these problems to the standards of competence and basic competences SMA/MA. The analysis showed that in 2012 spread over-apply procedural and conceptual understanding. In 2013 spread to the dimension-apply procedural and factual-understand. Based on the content of the material in a matter of IChO requires students to be able to find a material relationship with the other materials in order to resolve these problems while OSN does not, but both have dimensions of knowledge and cognitive process dimensions are not too different from that in the scope of procedural-procedural-applying and analyzing. The results of the mapping of the SK-KD SMA / MA shows only half the number of ksesluruhan matter can be mapped. The existence of this analysis are expected to be the input for the teacher to provide reinforcement in learning chemistry concepts, so that students are able to do a variety of problems, one of which is a matter of OSN. This study was limited in 2012 and 2013, so that the analysis can be developed for other years. Key Words: Analysis, revised Bloom's Taxonomy, Knowledge Dimension, The Cognitive Process Dimension

Universal Standard

Critical thinking includes a process of reasoning in thinking as stated by some scholars. In the process, there is universal standard to follow: clarity, accuracy, precision, relevance, depth, breadth, logic, and fairness. In language classes, critical thinking creates active classes. To bring critical thinking to classes, Bloom’s Taxonomy and critical thinking strategies can be working definition in order critical thinking to be applied to pedagogical materials in a practical way. Steps for critical thinking teaching includes five steps: (1) determining learning objectives, (2) teaching through questioning, (3) practicing before assessing, (4) reviewing, refining, and improving, and (5) providing feedback and assessment of learning. A lesson plan should reflect these five steps.Keywords: Critical Thinking; Language Teaching; Lesson Plan; Bloom’s Taxonomy; Critical Thinking Strategies

Different Levels

Implicit cognition is an intriguing area of focus when one considers the impact of implicit memory theories upon each learner's cognitive vulnerability when framed through Bloom's Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain. Specifically, consider the learner's cognitive understanding and movement from the lower order thinking skills, say from the Knowledge realm and Comprehension realm, towards the higher order thinking skills, Synthesis realm and Evaluation realm, or one of the revised domains to reflect Digital Age expectations. Although much is available on the different levels of cognitive achievement, the “in between” leaps in a learner's ability to work with the information in new and different manners may suggest that the cognitive vulnerability may impact the learner's implicit memory and the learner's movement between different taxonomic levels of informational understanding.

Teaching Learning

In December 2015, the Truth and Reconciliation Commission of Canada released its calls to action for reconciliation related to the oppressive legacy of Indian Residential Schools. Required actions include increased teaching of intercultural competencies and incorporation of indigenous ways of knowing and learning. Intercultural Communication as a discipline has primarily been developed from euro-centric traditions based in three domains of learning referred to as Bloom's taxonomy. Scholars and practitioners have increasingly identified problems in the way that intercultural competency is taught. The decolonization of education is implicated in finding solutions to those problems. Indigenization of education is one such effort. This chapter posits the Medicine Wheel, a teaching/learning framework that has widespread use in indigenous communities, for use in instructing intercultural communication. Bloom's taxonomy of the cognitive, psychomotor, and affective domains, is missing the fourth quadrant of the Medicine Wheel, spiritual. Examples of the spiritual quadrant are offered.
