Benjamin S. Bloom

Benjamin S. Bloom was an American educational psychologist best known for developing a framework called Bloom's Taxonomy. This classification helps educators understand and design learning objectives by categorizing cognitive skills from basic recall of facts to higher-order thinking like analysis and evaluation. His work guides teaching strategies aimed at encouraging deeper understanding and critical thinking, helping students progress through various levels of learning. Bloom’s taxonomy is widely used in education to structure lessons, assessments, and curriculum development, promoting more effective teaching and meaningful student learning.
