MOD 5 – Reflection

Ha! After checking again I learned how to insert the document AND have a link to it…there is always one more step it seems.  Assessment taxonomy

Ahhh…Bloom’s Taxonomy, an old friend. I’ll admit that I use it, old school or not. I’ll also admit that i have to refer to it when I am crafting assessments. The best part though is that most o f the time when I do look at the chart I end up creating much better assessments. Something that would have been a lower level knowledge or comprehension question becomes a synthesis or evaluation assignment without too much added effort.

I’ll be seeing Ken O’Connor in a week or two and I am interested to see how his ideas fit with not only Bloom’s but assessment models (especially online ones) from a variety of sources and situations.
