Considering Bloom's Taxonomy

Considering Bloom's Taxonomy, I think that the activity was on the analysis level. Task 2 asked that we create a comparison chart to outline commonalities in the three figures. The analyzing level on the taxonomy consists of breaking material into constituent parts and determining how they relate to each other. That is exactly what was done in Task 2.

What is TPACK?


TPACK is Technological Pedagogical Content Knowledge. It is a combination of three forms of knowledge. TPACK describes what a teacher needs to know in order to be effective in a learning environment that is enhanced by technology.  I believe this framework could have a very positive effect on instruction if the teacher is successful in his/her endeavors to incorporate technology into the learning environment.
