I want to eliminate completely the Bloom's taxonomy. Flipping it could be interesting, however it drives teachers and policy makers to continue CLINGING to a very old paradigm and old categorization. Moreover, hierarchies belong to LINEAR THINKING, it is still a traditional way of thinking.

Great article. Thank you!

Thank you for the article. Completely agree with the author (about the flipping thing). Crativity-avaluation-analysis etc leads to learning - that's for sure.

2013 Design Challenge: Robot Enhancements, Software, and Teaching Plans Sponsored by: The African Robotics Network (AFRON) and IEEE Robotics and Automation Society Robots excite people of all ages.

"The proposed invisible learning concept is the result of several years of research and work to integrate diverse perspectives on a new paradigm of learning and human capital development that is especially relevant in the context of the 21st century. This view takes into account the impact of technological advances and changes in formal, non-formal, and informal education, in addition to the 'fuzzy' metaspaces in between. Within this approach, we explore a panorama of options for future development of education that is relevant today. Invisible Learning does not propose a theory, but rather establishes a metatheory capable of integrating different ideas and perspectives. This has been described as a protoparadigm, which is still in the 'beta' stage of construction." -Cristóbal Cobo & John Moravec
