Bloom's Digital Taxonomy

The digital version of Bloom's Taxonomy was very helpful because it incorporates technology words.  It also has the reformatted scale with creating above evaluation (5 and 6 changed).  The emphasis is on the increasing levels of thinking skills - from LOTS to HOTS.  For the newly added technological terms, it had texting (LOTS) to collaborating (HOTS).  For example, application had "uploading", "editing", and some others.  These words are a practical addition that students can understand.  These terms allow students and teachers to evaluate the OTS for a digital assignment, encouraging the use of technology.  I would make sure that each student has a copy of Bloom's digital.  When the students have a copy of Blooms, it encourages them to use it.  They can use it when doing assignments and studying for tests.
