This document discusses the cognitive learning theory. It describes key theorists like Bloom, Gardner, and Gagne and how they contributed to cognitivism. Bloom created a taxonomy of learning domains and Gardner proposed multiple intelligences. Gagne identified 5 categories of learning and 9 events of instruction. The document also provides guidance for teachers to follow Gagne's model and identify students' learning styles, and for students to work through Bloom's taxonomy. Overall, it presents cognitivism as seeking to understand thinking and improve education by understanding individual learners.
