Evaluating Online

The new, updated Bloom's Taxonomy of cognitive development includes an evaluation portion. In a traditional classroom this part would resemble activities or assignments requiring the learners to critique, judge, justify, and support a position or idea. In an online learning system this part of Bloom's taxonomy is also completed through the same activities. End products that resemble Bloom's Taxonomy in relation to the evaluating stage would be a report, a self-evaluation, and even a recommendation.

In the classroom this would resemble a book report for a younger student, making sure the student utilizes the proper writing techniques including set-up, grammar, and all stages of the writing process. This is an activity that can be completed in a traditional or non-traditional classroom.
