Notes on Chapter 6: Integration in the Three Domains: Cognitive, Affective, and Psychomotor

• Cognitive domain – deals with factual information and higher-level skills such as analysis and synthesis
• Affective domain – deals with the role emotions play in learning; includes emotions, drives, and temporary and pervasive feeling states
• Psychomotor domain – deals with how the movement of the body is involved in learning

Each domain has several levels, or stages, within it


Affective stages in Bloom's Taxonomy:

1. Receiving or willingness to attend
2. Awareness
3. Responding or willingness to participate actively
4. Valuing
5. Organizing values



Psychomotor stages in Bloom Taxonomy:

1. Perception
2. Readiness to act
3. Ability to copy an instructor
4. Ability to carry out simple, and then complex, movement patterns
5. Ability too modify and adapt established patterns
6. Ability to create new movement patterns
