The document outlines an example of aligning online course design with Bloom's Taxonomy. It provides learning objectives, resources, activities, and assessments mapped to each level of Bloom's Taxonomy. The learning objectives are for students to 1) explain Bloom's Taxonomy, 2) match learning objectives to taxonomy levels, and 3) create original objectives for each taxonomy level. Students engage with presentations, quizzes, discussions and assignments to practice and demonstrate their understanding of applying Bloom's Taxonomy.
