Bloom's taxonomy is a set of three hierarchical models used to classify educational learning objectives into levels of complexity and specificity. The three lists include cognitive, affective and psychomotor domains. the cognitive domain is broken into six levels: Understanding, applying, analyzing, evaluating and creating. However affective domain is broken into five levels: Receiving, responding, valuing, organizing and characterizing where in every level student's response differ according to each situation. Going to the last category which is the psychomotor which describes the ability to physically manipulate a tool or instrument. Psychomotor objectives focus on change and or development in behavior and or skills. It is also divided to levels as the other domains, these levels include: Perception which is the ability to use sensory cues, set which is the readiness to act, guided response which is the early stages of learning a complex skill, mechanism which is the intermediate stage in learning a complex skill, adaptation and organization. To sum up, bloom's taxonomy serves as backbone of many teaching educators, mainly those who lean more towards skills rather than content.

Bloom's Taxonomy helps educators identify the intellectual level at which individual students are capable of working. It also helps them ask questions and create instruction aimed at critical thinking by striving to reach the top three levels of analysis, synthesis and evaluation with students ready for those levels.
