LONG TERM GOAL
To empower, to explore, to encourage, and to excel in education by incorporating 21st century skills.
To enable the students to think deeply about the mathematical concepts they
learn.To collaborate with peers and teachers on mathematical concepts using higher
order thinking. To use technology to create new ideas.
SHORT TERM GOALS
Objectives
By the end of the session students will be able to:
• Solve mental math questions using 21st century skills
• Collaborate with peers critically using higher order thinking
• Use the technology to create new ideas.
The BLOOM’S TAXONOMY• There is more than
one type of learning. A committee of colleges, led by Benjamin Bloom (1956), identified three domains of educational activities:
Cognitive: mental skills (Knowledge)
Affective: growth in feelings or emotional areas (Attitude)
Psychomotor: manual or physical skills (Skills)
Implementation of Bloom’s Taxonomy
