    It's important that all levels are present in the classroom, but even more important the HOTS is present the majority of the time.

    21st-Century and Bloom's
    This really shows how some of the 21st-Century learning/Technology usages combine with Bloom's to ensure it is being used to deepen students' learning/understanding.
  • Implementation

    Implementation
    A strategy that will be important in my classroom is integrating PBL with real-world problems, prior learning, and student interest. By using PBL students will be operating on a deeper level of Bloom's and will retain more information later on. One project will have students use simple machines to create a tool/device that can make theirs or others lives easier. It can range from entertainment, performing everyday activities, to solving an existing issue.

    This application easily helps students meet the analyzing and evaluating levels of Bloom's because the students are easily able to post and comment in different formats, reflect on their learning, and show their learning in many formats. It is a great digital portfolio and also has a blogging feature. Depending on how a teacher uses this application it could really meet any level.
  • Do Ink

    Do Ink is a green screen application. I would place this application in the creating level of Bloom's. Students can create and develop movies and presentations with many different backdrops, due to the green screen technology, and can easily app smash with other apps to add more features.
