Virtual Classrooms are enhanced when educators have the tools to implement proven learning models in online learning environments. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Developed by American educational psychologist Benjamin Bloom, Bloom\u2019s Taxonomy is a series of hierarchical models that help educators easily assess students’ progress in mastering new skills.\u00a0 The taxonomy consists of six stages:\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Bloom’s Taxonomy in Online Learning<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

To demonstrate Bloom\u2019s Taxonomy in action with BigBlueButton online learning tools, we\u2019ll start with a simple lesson teaching students about apples.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tool #1:  Smart Slides Polling Feature<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

After introducing the class to different varieties of apples, you may want to quiz the students about what they have just learned.\u00a0 Smart Slides gives you the ability to quickly generate poll questions<\/a> directly from your slides without ever leaving your presentation making it easy for you to assess how well your students are remembering and understanding the material as you move through the lesson. \u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n

And just like that, you’ve incorporated the Remember, Understand, and Evaluate stages into your lesson – and you’re just getting started! <\/p>\n\n\n\n

<\/div>\n\n\n\n

Tool #2: Multi-user Whiteboard  <\/h3>\n\n\n\n

The Multi-User Whiteboard is an ideal tool for reinforcing comprehension by having students work collaboratively on sharing ideas, linking concepts, and organizing information.  Using the Multi-user whiteboard<\/a> users can annotate, share images, draw figures and diagrams, and more.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Using these tools, students can be encouraged to share images of different apple varieties, link apple images to the correct tree images that produce the apples, share apple recipes, or any number of exercises that further apply their understanding of apples. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this way, the multi-user whiteboard can support every stage in Bloom\u2019s taxonomy. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
