This document discusses aims, goals, objectives and Bloom's taxonomy. It defines aims as broader, long-term goals that may or may not be achieved, while objectives are narrow, specific, measurable and achievable in the short-term. Goals fall between aims and objectives. Bloom's taxonomy classifies learning objectives into three domains: cognitive (knowledge, comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, evaluation), affective (receiving, responding, valuing, organization, characterization), and psychomotor (perception, set, guided response, mechanism, complex overt response, adaptation, origination). The cognitive domain involves thinking skills and ranges from basic recall to evaluation. The affective domain involves attitudes, values and feelings. The
