Bloomin' Apps This page gathers all of the Bloomin' Apps projects in one place.Each image has clickable hotspots and includes suggestions for iPad, Android, Google and online tools and applications to support each of the levels of Bloom's Revised Taxonomy.I have created a page to allow you to share your favorite online tool, iOS, or Android app with others. Cogs of the Cognitive Processes I began to think about the triangular shape of Bloom's Taxonomy and realized I thought of it a bit differently.Since the cognitive processes are meant to be used when necessary, and any learner goes in and out of the each level as they acquire new content and turn it into knowledge, I created a different type of image that showcased my thoughts about Bloom's more meaningfully.Here is my visual which showcases the interlocking nature of the cognitive processes or, simply, the "Cogs of the Cognitive Processes". IPAD APPS TO SUPPORT BLOOM'S REVISED TAXONOMYassembled by Kathy Schrock Bloom's and SAMR: My thoughts
TaxonomieDeBloom:Processus Bloom (puis Krathwohl et al. en 2001) ont classé les processus cognitifs en tentant de déterminer lesquels demandent le moins d'activité cognitive et lesquels sont les plus exigeants cognitivement. L'écart entre les différents processus n'est pas égal. Ainsi, l'écart entre mémoriser et comprendre n'est pas le même qu'entre appliquer et analyser (qui lui est plus grand). Certains disent même que les trois premiers processus (mémoriser, comprendre et appliquer) ne sont pas vraiment progressifs et se chevauchent parfois. Mais, ce débat nous importe peu. Note: voir Choisir son outil MétaTIC, comment ? Voici une très courte définition de chacun des processus: Mémoriser Je me rappelle, je reconnais ou je tire une connaissance pertinente de ma mémoire à long terme (connaissances antérieures). J'utilise ma mémoire pour définir, nommer les faits, réciter et me souvenir. Comprendre Je comprends le sens des mots, les faits, les méthodes, les procédures et les concepts.

30 COMPETENCES Jean-Pierre Astolfi s’inscrit dans le courant de la professionnalisation du métier d’enseignant. Pour montrer les évolutions en cours, il analyse les mots employés dans la profession. Or, on n’arrive pas à stabiliser un vocabulaire spécialisé autour des enseignants. Certes, en créant un vocabulaire spécialisé, on risque de créer un jargon et, en conséquence, de faire de la rétention d'informations, mais il est nécessaire d'employer des mots dont le sens est stabilisé car le vocabulaire courant n'est pas assez précis et oblige à recourir constamment aux périphrases. JP Astolfi a proposé deux séries de 10 mots, d’un côté les mots courants pour définir les apprentissages, de l’autre, les mots du jargon des sciences de l'éducation. 1- Transmission/Construction La transmission Ce mot renvoie à un modèle rustique de la communication où les élèves sont dans l'écoute, l'accueil, l'effectuation docile, même si l'enseignant leur demande de "participer". La construction 2- Instruction/Formation
