Blooms TL classifies learning outcome statements based on Blooms Taxonomy (Anderson and Krathwhol, 2001). This taxonomy describes the depth of thinking required by students in learning activities and assessments. The six levels in Blooms taxonomy are: remembering, comprehending, applying, analysing, evaluating, and creating. The classification in this app uses tables containing parts of speech that are generally classified at a given Blooms level. These tables have been previously been identified in the education literature (Stanny, 2016; von Konsky et al. 2018).
