Explore the ANALYSE cognitive level from Bloom's taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain

Supercharge your training workshops and engage your learners with thinking tools, improving critical thinking skills at the same time as the topic being covered. Use specific thinking tools to create a higher level of success, engagement and participation in training sessions, seminars, workshops and meetings.

In this webinar recorded in 2021 with Eric Frangenheim from Rodin Educational Consultancy, explore the ANALYSE cognitive level from Bloom’s taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain. 

Workbook provided & Tools used - Use the 'Double Bubble Map' and 'Extended PCQ (Pros, Cons, Questions) with Perspectives' thinking tools.

Each tool is dealt with twice. The first exercise/activity is completing a tool on a topic chosen. The second exercise/activity is where each participant spends 5 minutes using that thinking tool on a topic of their choice, which they will have established at the start. Practice two thinking tools, the first exercise/activity based on selected topics, and the second exercise/activity to practice by using both thinking tools to suit their own purpose.

Participant Feedback

 

Thinking skills & tools

A thinking skill is determined by the task verb used in the question or activity. E.g., “Discuss this proposal, marketing plan, technique, solution”. ‘Discuss’ is the thinking skill.

Asking a good question is no guarantee that you will receive a good or thoughtful answer. However, if you link an appropriate thinking tool (a template or graphic organiser such as a SWOT Analysis), you are far more likely to receive a better response and develop greater engagement in your training sessions, seminars, workshops and meetings”. E.g., ‘Discuss your role within your organisation by using a SWOT Analysis’. ‘Discuss’ is the thinking skill. The ‘SWOT Analysis’ is the thinking tool.
