Bloom’s Taxonomy
• Developed in 1948 by Benjamin Bloom

cognitive ability or thinking

Webb’s Depth of Knowledge
• Created by Norman Webb• Is descriptive and not a taxonomy• Measures the depth of knowledge
of tasks• Verbs alone do not determine the
DOK level• DOK level is determined by
complex thinking and reasoning skills

“If you make people think they're thinking, they'll love you; but if you really make them
think, they'll hate you.” ― Don Marquis

What Does Thinking Look Like in the Classroom?
• Skillful thinking must be cultivated
• Model thinking• Recognizing how we think
• Cognition and content are inseparable

Types of Thinking
• Analytical thinking- analyze, compare & contrast, and evaluate information
• Practical thinking- apply learning to real life scenarios
• Creative thinking- create, design, imagine, and suppose
• Research-based- explore and review ideas, models and solution to problems

Can Students Solve Problems in Text Based Subjects?
• Abstraction- leaving out one of the characteristics of an item
• Improving solutions- providing a solution to a problem or asked to improve a solution to a problem
• Generating ideas- creating analogies and an idea list or representations
• Relevant/irrelevant information- identifying information need or not need to solve a problem

Teaching
“Readers are plentiful; thinkers are rare.”
― Harriet Martineau
“Thinking is the hardest work there is, which is probably the reason so
few engage in it.” ― Henry Ford
