This document outlines three domains of learning: cognitive, affective, and psychomotor. The cognitive domain, proposed by Benjamin Bloom, contains six levels of objectives: knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation. The affective domain, proposed by David Krathwohl, also has five levels: receiving, responding, valuing, organization, and characterization. The psychomotor domain contains various levels of physical or motor skill objectives, proposed by different theorists like Anita Harrow and RH Dave.

2. It is the classification of the different objectives
and skills that educators set for their students
To motivate the educators to create a more
holistic form of education

resolve conflicts between them to form
a system of values

23. Keywords:
conceptualization of a value – to discuss, to theorize,
