Question:
Why is Bloom's Cognitive Domain being important for settinglearning goals?
Create a learning activity for any subject, using any THREE levels of Bloom’s
Taxonomy.
Goal:
Students will learn about ecosystems by identifying components, explaining
interactions, and designing a model ecosystem.
Activity Steps
1. **Understanding**:
Task: Students will read a short article about ecosystems, including producers,
consumers, and decomposers.
Assessment: After reading, students will complete comprehension questions to
demonstrate an understanding of the key concepts.
Example Questions:
Provide an answer about what producers do in the ecosystem.
Provide an answer that explains how consumers depend upon producers.
2. Application:
Task: Students will work in small groups to create a poster for a specific ecosystem
rainforest, desert, or aquatic.
Assessment: Each group will present a poster to the class and explain the
interactions between organisms in their ecosystem.
Example Elements to Include:
Food chains that show how energy flows.
A variety of species with their roles identified.
3. Creating:
Task: Students will design a model ecosystem using recycled materials e.g.,
cardboard, plastic bottles that incorporate elements discussed in class.
Assessment: Each group will present their model to the class and explain how each
component interacts within the ecosystem.
Criteria for Evaluation:
- Creativity in design.
- Accuracy in representing ecosystem components.
- Clarity in explaining interactions.
Conclusion:
This activity enables the student to work on all the various levels of Bloom's
Taxonomy. It encourages the cooperation and creativity of the student while
maximizing their understanding of ecosystems. The student here transitions from
understanding to application and finally to the creation of a model. This exercise
fosters critical thought development in scientific inquiry.
