The document discusses revising Bloom's Taxonomy for 21st century learners and pairing higher level thinking skills with educational technologies. It suggests that higher level thinking doesn't stop at evaluation and explores how tools like Google, iPads, and Web 2.0 can support creating, analyzing, and other advanced cognitive processes. Educators are encouraged to think smarter about how they prepare students for an unknown future by teaching self-directed learning using these technologies.

1. Bloom’s 2.0
Are you applying it to your classroom?

2. Reviewing Bloom’s
• Individually:
• Using your sticky notes (placed at your table) as a label;
try and recall the six levels of Bloom's Taxonomy.
• With a Partner:
• Compare with your partner to come up with the
answers.
• Put them in order

3. Traditional Blooms

4. What is our Goal?
• Does higher level thinking really stop at
evaluation?
• How can technology play a role in
higher level thinking?
• What is our role as educators? Has it
changed?

6. Actions At Each Level
• See if you can list at least 3 actions for each
level.
• Compare your list with others to get more
actions

7. Understanding the Revised Blooms

8. 21st Century Learners
• Perhaps the best thing we can teach our
children now is how to teach themselves.
• Teachers do not need to work harder...but
work smarter.
• For the first time in history, we are
preparing our students for a future that we
can’t clearly describe.
