objectives within education proposed
in 1956 by a committee of educators
chaired by Benjamin Bloom
► Created in order to promote higher
forms of thinking in education, such

objectives into three types:
Cognitive(knowing/head),
Affective(Feeling/heart) and
Psychomotor(doing/hands)
►Bloom's Taxonomy is considered to be a
foundational and essential element within
the education community as evidenced in
the 1981 survey Significant writings that
have influenced the curriculum: 1906-
1981, by H.G. Shane and the 1994
yearbook of the National Society for the
