Bloom’s Taxonomy and Foreign Language Instructional Design

After reading and watching the presentations, I was a little lost this week. Everything was super interesting but I had no idea what to talk about. My colleagues had already done perfect synthesis and I did not want to do the same. I recently finished my second master’s in Education Administration and all this material was familiar to me. So, after a lot of research and thinking, I decided to talk about something that will be very useful for me and my online class design: Bloom’s Taxonomy for Foreign Language Instruction. I found two excellent resources and made a Power Point with the most important points.

I decided to make an audio describing the PP; you will have to listen to it if you want to know why 🙂

It is easier to read the words if you view it with fullscreen. Do not forget to click “play” first on the audio file.

    Hello Laura — I enjoyed your presentation. That was a great idea for this week’s posting. Very well done., clearly explained. I liked how you explained what you use now and whether you will use it when you get your online class, and then what you will use that’s new (i.e. Voicethread). I don’t think I’ll be using Second Life either — although I’m intrigued with how others are using it. I guess I would need to experience it first. Thanks for a great post!

    I enjoyed reading your post–especially because I too teach foreign languages. I find it fascinating to find the best ways we can help our students to learn. It seems like once we “lead the way” and show by example how to learn a language, they can often teach themselves with our guidance that is. Thanks for your presentation. It was great!
