Bloom's hierarchy of educational objectives
1. Bloom's hierarchy of educational objectives
In 1956, Bloom published a hierarchy of educational objectives that has been used ever since.
2. Foundational knowledge
The foundational knowledge is formed by a lot of facts and simple rules in the discipline.
Multiple choice questions.
I use non-deterministic generation of similar questions to use multiple choice questions to above the foundational level.
3. Top level
The top level is formed by abstract and innovative thinking and problem solving.
In college, this is typically a senior research project or required in senior-level courses.
4. Introductory programming
An introductory programming course should create a foundation while not requiring too much of the upper levels to be required.
The middle levels can be obtained by learning common patterns in the discipline and how to use those patterns in solving selected problems - by example.
Labs - form the basis of a pattern
Assignments - use a common pattern solution for that problem.
