We invite you to understand, apply and share this Thinking Skills Framework (in teacher-speak, also known as ‘Bloom’s Taxonomy of the Cognitive Domain’). We believe it is the most important cognitive framework that educators, business leaders and parents can use to encourage and structure critical thinking – from foundation to higher-order thinking, as well as creative, collaborative and cooperative thinking. It’s a powerful and simple structure for thinking that people of all ages can use to to approach any classroom activity, assessment task, project, meeting and even everyday life decisions.
