| dc.description.abstract | test is an important part of assessing students understanding of course content and their level of competency in applying what they are learning. Whether teacher use low-stakes and frequent evaluations-quizzes-or high-stakes and infrequent evaluations-midterm and final—careful design will help provide more calibrated results. Bloom's taxonomy is a set of three hierarchical models used to classify educational learning objectives into levels of complexity and specificity. The three lists cover the learning objectives in cognitive, affective and sensory domains. The cognitive domain list has been the primary focus of most traditional education and is frequently used to structure curriculum learning objectives, assessments and activities. The models were named after Benjamin Bloom, who chaired the committee of educators that devised the taxonomy. Bloom's taxonomy (BT) can be used to help teachers frame the decision making process of test construction and improve the validity of teachers' evaluations based on tests constructed for classroom use. In this paper the researcher explain the purpose of a Bloom's taxonomy and how to use it to help construct classroom tests. | en_US |
