The renowned Bloom’s Taxonomy was revised in 2001 by one of the developers of the original taxonomy. In this interactive program, participants utilize critical thinking skills to examine the differences between Bloom's original taxonomy and the revision published in 2001. An analysis of the elements of adult learning theory sets the stage during this collaborative program for determining the benefits of a two-dimensional approach for learning objectives.*
* This program has been approved for 1.00 (HR [General]) recertification credit hour toward PHR, SPHR and GPHR recertification through the HR Certification Institute.
