At the conclusion of a unit about reliable source material and contemporary journalism, a teacher asks her students to write two
news stories: a "fake news" story and a true news story about something going on at school or in the community. This assignment most closely aligns with which level of Bloom’s Taxonomy?
Bloom's Taxonomy is a method of classifying learning from complex to specific. Mostly represented as a pyramid from bottom to top is remember, understand, apply, analyze, evaluate and create.
For this example of a "fake news" story the tier of "Analyze" is applicable since it will require the use of judgement, and comparing and contrasting as well as discernment skills.
