Think alouds are carefully structured models of how effective strategy users think
and monitor their understandings.
Purpose: to model for students how skilled readers construct meaning from a text.
Over 40 years ago, Bloom and his colleagues introduced a taxonomy of educational
objectives that includes six levels: Knowledge, Comprehension, Application,
Analysis, Synthesis, and Evaluation.
This taxonomy was created on the principle that learning proceeds from concrete
knowledge to abstract values.
In 2001, D.R Krathwohl and his colleagues published a revised taxonomy called
Taxonomy for Learning, Teaching, and Assessing: A Revision of Blooms Taxonomy
of Educational Objectives.
Revised Taxonomy
The six levels in the revised taxonomy include: Remember, Understand, Apply,
Analyze, Evaluate, and Create.
Researchers have found that of the approximately 80,000 questions the average
teacher asks annually, 80 percent are at the Literal or Knowledge level. This is
especially a problem for English Language Learner students. ELL students need to
be asked more higher order and complex questions- not merely simple questions
that result in yes/no or one word responses.
