This site adapts Blooms Taxomony to the use of digital technologies to enhance student learning outcomes. Bloom's Digital Taxonomy isn't about the tools or technologies rather it is about using these to facilitate learning. Outcomes on rubrics are measured by competence of use and most importantly the quality of the process or product.

Benjamin Bloom headed a group of educational psychologists who, in 1956, developed a method of classifying cognitive thinking into different levels, each building on the previous level, from the most simple to the most abstract. Cognitive learning includes knowledge recall, comprehending information, organizing ideas, analyzing and synthesizing data, applying knowledge, choosing among alternatives in problem-solving, and evaluating ideas or actions. These skills are targeted in education.
