This component takes in unencoded information from the environment and is only able to hold it for a few seconds

Sensory register

100

Tasks in this level of Bloom's taxonomy ask students to explain ideas or concepts in their own words

Understand

A teacher's math lesson includes students reciting the FOIL method for solving basic binomials. This part of the lesson would fall under this level of Bloom's taxonomy. 

Remember

200

Children at this stage can differentiate fantasy from reality and start developing logical reasoning

Concrete operational stage

After doing a pre-lesson quiz to gauge his student's understanding, Axel modifies his class activities to be more situated in his students' zone of proximal development. This type of scaffolding is generally referred to as...

this approach consists of the activities provided by the educator, or more competent peer, to support the student as he or she is led through the zone of proximal development


Scaffolding

300

Working memory takes information from these two sources

Sensory Register and Long-term memory

300

Students in ED 40 are tasked with teaching someone a skill by applying their learning theories. Students turn this lesson into a video presentation. This most likely falls under this level of Bloom's taxonomy.

Create

300

Chunk size changes with expertise and development in this way

Chunks are able to hold more information with more expertise and development

Jessie is trying to learn how to do derivatives in her math class. She has a hard time understanding how they work, but over time realizes that it is comprised of basic multiplication, addition, and subtraction in a specific sequence. Jessie uses this Piagetian process to make sense of derivatives.

Assimilation

400

Piaget believed language was for this purpose, while Vygotsky believed it was used for this.

Piaget believed language was used to represent thought (e.g. label things) while Vygotsky saw language (oral interaction) as a means to shape thought (learn culture)

400

Stan tried reading his favorite subreddit r/aita during class while also trying to listen to the lecture. When asked shortly after class ended what he remembered, Stan could only recall bits and pieces. These two processes/components contributed to Stan's (lack of) knowledge

This was the reason for changing "Synthesis" to "Create" and placing it at the top of Bloom's taxonomy

To make learning more student-centered

Jimmy Neutron participates in a science fair, and is able to make conjectures about climate change and tests how household pollutants affect water quality. Jimmy would be in this cognitive developmental stage.

Formal Operational

500

Sheen cooks a cup of rice in the rice cooker. Sheen believed there was more rice in the pot after the rice was cooked. Sheen has failed to do this, and Piaget would could consider him in this developmental stage.

Conserve & Pre-Operational

500

Some students work together on the ED 40 project to create a final video presentation. Sometimes groups have specialized skills: teacher, video editor, presentation, etc. Social constructivists would consider this a type of ______ learning.

Cooperative learning

Raymond was asked to buy boba for his friends. He was told the drinks in the following order: Black MT, Thai tea, oolong tea, jasmine green tea, earl gray tea, osmanthus tea, herbal tea, viet coffee, mung bean MT, and ice cream MT. He did not write this down anywhere, so he was most likely going to remember these two drinks.

Black MT and Ice Cream MT (primacy and recency effect of serial positioning)

Roald can list a number of popular shonen series that have come out in recent years (Jujutsu Kaisen, Demon Slayer, Dr. Stone etc.) as well as some other details related to popular character rankings and volumes sold.

These two examples fall under which two knowledge dimensions in the updated Bloom's taxonomy?
