Mr. Ruiz uses Bloom’s Taxonomy of Educational Objectives in his Spanish class as an aid in creating his own course objectives. His belief is that Bloom’s Taxonomy is beneficial to the teaching of a foreign language. To that end he tries to tailor a unit’s objectives to one of Bloom’s cognitive levels. For a unit in which one of the objectives is that all students are able to analyze the material, which of the following would be an appropriate assessment?
  1. An oral presentation in Spanish
  2. An essay in Spanish
  3. Paired work on grammar assignments
Explanation
Answer: D - Paired work on grammar worksheets. Analysis, according to Bloom’s Taxonomy, requires the ability to break down something into its smaller parts, understand the parts and re-form the whole idea. An assignment that asks students to work on grammar would aid in their ability to analyze the newly acquired knowledge of a second language.
