Paragraph, indent here Blooms Taxonomy was created in the 1950’s after a study discovered
How most students were not taught to use critical thinking. Blooms
Taxonomy helps not only students or registered nurses but also patients
To use higher level of thinking to improve learning. Blooms taxonomy
Deals with three domains of learning: Cognitive, affective, and
Psychomotor. Citations need to be addressed in paper
Indent …The Cognitive domain of Blooms taxonomy deals with the knowledge, (mental
Skills) and the development of intellectual skills. This includes the recall or
Recognition of specific facts, procedural patterns, and concepts that serve in
The development of intellectual abilities and skills comprehension, application, analysis, synthesis, and evaluation should this last sentence be in quotes?. The Affective domain
(Krathwohl, Bloom, Masia, 1973) includes the manner in which we deal with things emotionally, Such as feelings, values, appreciation, enthusiasms, motivations, and attitudes. Coordination and use of the motor-skill areas.
Development of these skills requires practice and is measured in terms of speed, precision, distance, procedures or techniques in execution.
The research conducted on Blooms Taxonomy for nursing education, is to apply
What’s learned. It is impossible to memorize and recall everything. There is too
Much information and information is always changing. In the first level of nursing
You must know the facts like what are normal values. For example in first level
Test question it may ask you what are the therapeutic levels of lithium, you know
The normal values are 0.5 to 1.5. In the second level of questions it may state
Something like, which sign or symptom is the nurse likely to assess if the client’s
Lithium level is 0.2meq. In this case you have to know the therapeutic range
