Bloom's Taxonomy Problems

The Bloom is Off the Vine

I just came across this nifty little piece on Bloom's Taxonomy, written by Brenda Sugrue for ISPI's Performance Express.

It's a nice critique on the validity and usefulness of Bloom's Taxonomy for Instructional Design.

Read it here.

I tend to agree with Brenda's Critique. For a long time I've been suspicious of Blooms.

I've been referring to Brenda's article for a while now, but no one else seems to be picking it up. A lot of people still accept Bloom's taxonomy without knowing why. Thanks for raising this again.
